To start, you have to figure out how many lines there are. So do 174 divided by 14. Then multiply that answer with 12. I’m not sure if this is right but i hope this helps! Good luck!

Answer:

203 lines

Explanation:

First: Figure out how many words there are (174x14).

Second: Divide that by 12 (which is the average of words per line) because we are trying to figure out how many lines there are.

Third: The answer is 203 lines.

Sorry about that first answer but this one I am sure is right.
