My question is: Barbara Blackburn can type 212 words per minute. Due to Carpal tunnel syndrome, Barbara cannot use her left hand for a while so her typing speed is now 40 words less per minute. If she is supposed to type a document with 3440 words, how many minutes will it take her to finish typing the document? Your thoughts:

Due to carpal tunnel syndrome, Barbara can only type 212 - 40 = 172 words per minute. So, she will be able to finish typing the document in 3440 / 172 = 20 minutes. The final answer: 20.
