Question

A cell phone can receive 120 messages per minute. At this rate, how many messages can the phone recieve in 150 seconds

Answer 1

Hi,

The answer would be 300 messages. To explain, there are 60 seconds in a minute so 120 divided by 60 is 2, so that means 2 words per second. So to get the answer for 150 seconds, you multiply 150 by 2 and get 300.

I hope this helps!
