Kimba chewed a piece of gum 42 times in one minute. If she continued to chew at the same rate, how many times would she chew her gum in 100 seconds?

Asked by daddygirl4lyfe

Answer (2)

chews per second = 42/60 = 0.7 chews/second
0.7 x 100 = 70 chews in 100 seconds

Kimba chews her gum 70 times in 100 seconds if she maintains her rate of 42 chews in one minute. This is calculated by determining her chews per second and then multiplying that by 100 seconds. Thus, the answer is 70 chews in 100 seconds.
