Question 921053: Frank typed 140 words in four minutes in class. Rose typed 4/5 as many words as frank, and veronica typed 1.6 times the number of words frank typed. Determine the number of words veronica and rose each typed per minute and describe how the number of words that veronica can type per minute compares with the number of words can type per minute.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Frank 140
Rose (4/5)140 = .8•140 = 112
Veronica: 1.6•140 = 224
