Answer 2

Answer:

12 hours or 720 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 reports are graded in 90 minutes, and that there are 60 minutes in an hour. Assuming this is a constant rate, the time taken to grade 32 reports would be:

4 reports / 90 minutes × 60 minutes / hour = 32 reports / x hours.

Where x is the amount of hours taken to grade 32 reports.

→

4 reports × 1 hour /
