d) 300/60
e) 10 pages/hour
Option e is correct
10 pages/hour
.
Explanation :
Sam writes 60 words per minutes i.e
.. 60 words = 60 seconds or 1 minute
So Sam will write 360 words in 6 minutes to complete one page
Therefore, 360 words = 360 seconds or 6 minutes = 1 page
Sam takes 6 minutes to complete one page, so he will take 60 minutes to complete 10 pages.
i.e . 60 minutes = 10 pages (60 minutes = 1 hour)
Hence Sam will write 10 pages per hour.
