Okay, here is how i got my answer. i divided 300 by 1.08 because 68 seconds translates to 1 minute and 8 seconds. I got 277.77 repeated but you can round it to 278. This is a rate so you might wanna write it like this: 277/minute
Answer:
260.71 words per minute and 52.142 pages per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
A book has an average of 300 words per page.
you read one page in 68 seconds.
So, you read per second = [tex]\frac{300}{68}[/tex] words
you read per minute = [tex]\frac{300}{68}[/tex] × 60
= 260.705882 ≈ 260.71 words/minute.
As we know 1 minute = 60 seconds
and 1 hour = 60 minutes
∵ in one minute 260.71 words
∴ in one hour = 260.71 × 60 = 15,642.6 words.
One page has 300 words
∴ 15,642.6 words = [tex]\frac{15642.6}{300}[/tex]
= 52.142 pages/hour.
Your reading rate 260.71 words per minute and 52.142 pages per hour.
