rate * time = quantity.
\n" ); document.write( "r * t = q
\n" ); document.write( "r = rate
\n" ); document.write( "t = time
\n" ); document.write( "q = quantity\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "r = 300
\n" ); document.write( "q = 1000
\n" ); document.write( "r * t = q becomes 300 * t = 1000
\n" ); document.write( "it took 1000/300 = 3 and 1/3 hours to type 1000 words on monday.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "by the end of the day on tuesday, she had typed 3600 words.
\n" ); document.write( "this included the 1000 words she typed on monday.
\n" ); document.write( "she must have typed 2600 words on tuesday.
\n" ); document.write( "r * t = q becomes 300 * t = 2600.
\n" ); document.write( "it took 2600 / 300 = 8 and 2/3 hours to type 2600 words on tuesday.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "your solution should be 8 and 2/3 hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "she typed a total of 3600 words.
\n" ); document.write( "r * t = q becomes 300 * t = 3600
\n" ); document.write( "t = 3600 / 300 = 12 hours total.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "she typed 3 and 1/3 hours on monday and she typed 8 and 2/3 hours on tuesday.
\n" ); document.write( "that's a total of 12 hours.
\n" ); document.write( "the solution that she spent 8 and 2/3 hours on tuesday is confirmed correct.\r
