✔ 最佳答案
Typing rate = 25/36 words per second (words/s)

The number of words she can type in half an hour= 25/36 x (60x30) =1250words

Since 1250 > 1200

Therefore, the answer is correct.

100 words = 144 seconds

1200 words = 100 words x 12 = 144 seconds x 12 = 1728 seconds = 28.8 mins

Mandy can type 1200 words in half an hour at the same rate.

Formula as below :

144 seconds/100 x 1200 = 1728 seconds = 28.8 mins.

cf, 題目的意思有可能想問關於 rounding, approximation, estimation的知識。

144 seconds correct to the nearest second, 即是可以在 143.5 seconds 和 144.5 之間。

那麼打1200字就需時 143.5*12 至 144.5*12 seconds之間,
即 1722 秒 和 1734 秒之間
即 28.7 分鐘 和 28.9 分鐘之間

所以必定在 30分鐘之內
