next part of question?
at that pace, how many weeks will it take to reach the goal of 1,000,000 minutes of reading?
next part of question?
how could the reading goal be reached in ten weeks if only 500 students participated?
Here is the first part of your question.
the number of students that are taking part in the project is 1000. each student has agreed to read 100 minutes per week. how many total minutes will be read each week? 10,000-answer
Please note that 100 * 1,000 is not 10,000.
Divide 1,000,000 by the correct answer.
1000*100=100,000
1,000,000/100,000=10
Right. It will take 10 weeks to accumulate a million hours.
How do you think the third part can be solved?
500/10=50
Nope. What does 50 have to do with your question?
how could the reading goal be reached in ten weeks if only 500 students participated?
Sorry, 500 students*50=25,000
If 1,000 students each reads 100 pages a week, then why would 500 students need to read 250 times as much?
I am sorry I do not understand the question
To calculate the number of weeks it would take to reach the goal of 1,000,000 minutes of reading, we need to know the pace of reading per week. However, you haven't provided that information, so it's difficult to provide an exact answer.
To calculate the number of weeks, you need to divide 1,000,000 by the pace of reading per week. Let's call the pace "P" (in minutes per week). The formula would be:
Number of weeks = 1,000,000 / P
If you have the pace of reading per week, you can substitute it into the formula and calculate the number of weeks it would take to reach the goal.
Regarding the second part of your question, if only 500 students participated and the goal is to reach 1,000,000 minutes of reading in ten weeks, we can calculate how many minutes each student needs to read in order to achieve this.
Number of minutes each student needs to read = 1,000,000 / 500
So each student would need to read 2,000 minutes over the course of ten weeks to collectively reach the goal.
I hope this explanation helps you understand how to approach these types of questions! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
