That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
A typist who can type 50 words per minute will take how long to type a 300,000-word book? Since the typist can type 50 words per minute, we can calculate the total time by dividing the total number of words in the book by the typing speed. Thus, 300,000 divided by 50 equals 6,000 minutes. Converting minutes to hours, we divide by 60, resulting in 100 hours. Therefore, it will take the typist 100 hours to type the 300,000-word book.
