Question

Rachel types 85 words each minute. She has typed 1000000 words. If she types for 6 hours each day, for about how many days has she typed? Explain the step you used to solve this problem.

Answer 1

if she types 85 words in a minute then
60 mins in 1 hour
85 times 60= words per hour=5100
5100 times 6=word in a day=30600
so we see how many 1,000,000 go into 30600 so
1,000,000/30600= (divide top and bottom by 100) 10,000/306=32.6 or aprox 33 days
