14Printer rate word problem

A printer prints 18 pages in 45 seconds. At this rate, how many minutes will it take to print 300 pages? A) 7.5 B) 12.5 C) 15 D) 750

It takes 12.5 minutes, answer B. The printer's rate is 18/45 = 0.4 pages/sec, so 300 pages takes 300/0.4 = 750 seconds, which is 750/60 = 12.5 minutes.

How good is this answer?
