Question

Paul can type 60 words per minute and Jennifer can type 80 words per minute. How does Paul's typing speed compare to Jennifer's?

Answer 1

- - You have: 60:80

Solve:

Divide each of these bight the HCD (20)


After that you get: 3:4

Now because you get the ratio of 3:4 it means than
1 second=3 words -Paul
1 second=4 words -Jennifer's

Answer 2

Paul does not compare to Jennifer. Jennifer is supreme.

nah but seriously a 60:80 when divided by 10 is 6:8. Divide that by 2 and its 3:4. Therefore Jennifer is 1/4 times faster or 20 words/per minute faster that Paul.
