Respuesta :
Well, it cant be option B because then it wuld be half the time (180 mins.)
It cant be option D becasue then it would be over 360 mins, seeing that it only took 8 mins to type 360
And it cant be option C beacuse it would be too small, if 4 mins is to small then 3 mins is worse
Your answer would be A 5 minutes it's just a little bit above 4 mins(half)
Answer:
A. 5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this question using proportions
Let x be the number of minutes needed to type 225 words.
8 minutes = 360 words
x = 225 words
Cross-multiply
360 × x = 225× 8
360 x = 1800
Divide both-side of the equation by 360
[tex]\frac{360x}{360}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1800}{360}[/tex]
(On the left-hand side of the equation, 360 at the numerator will cancel-out 360 at the denominator, while on the right-hand side of the equation 1800 will be divided by 360)
x= 5 minutes
Therefore, it will take 5 minutes to type 225 words
