You can type 500 words in 20 minutes. Find how many words per minute.


To determine how many words per minute you can type, you can use a simple formula:

\[
\text{Words per minute (WPM)} = \frac{\text{Total words typed}}{\text{Time in minutes}}
\]

Given:
- Total words typed = 500 words
- Time = 20 minutes

Substitute these values into the formula:

\[
\text{WPM} = \frac{500}{20} = 25
\]

So, you can type **25 words per minute**.

2. How long would it take to type 1000 words at a speed of 40 words per minute?
3. If someone types 45 words per minute, how many words can they type in 15 minutes?
4. You have 10 minutes left in an exam. If you type at 30 words per minute, how many words can you still type?
5. If you need to type 2000 words and can type 25 words per minute, how long will it take you to complete the task?

**Tip:** To increase your typing speed, try practicing with typing exercises that focus on accuracy first, then gradually increase your speed.
