Question

Lisa typed a 165-word paragraph in three minutes. Use the ratio table to
determine how many minutes it will take for Lisa to type 55 words.

Answer 1

Answer:

1 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that Lisa types 165 words in 3 mins.

So she types 55 words in 1 minute.

How did I work that out?

Well, all you really do is $\frac {165}{3}$ which is equal to $\frac{55}{1}$ if you divide top and bottom by 3. Anything divided by 1 is itself.
