Answer:B. Bradley

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Ellen types 205 words in 5 minutes. To compare with the other participants, we need to find her typing speed per minute by dividing 205 by 5.

$x=\frac{205}{5}$

$x=41$

Ellen can type at a rate of 41 words per minute. Next, we must determine the words per minute of the other students. Let’s begin with the first one and analyze downwards:

Alissa:

$x=\frac{220}{20}$ It cannot be Alissa.

$x=11$

Bradley:

$x=\frac{328}{8}$

$x=41$ Your answer is B. Bradley

zzz [12365]

Avoid repeating the question as it can be perplexing.

Given 100 cookies and 20 brownies,
What is the highest number you can divide them equally by?

To find the greatest common factor,
Factor them:
100 = 2*2*5*5
20 = 2*2*5
Thus, the greatest common factor, which is shared between them, is 2*2*5 or 20.

Calculating further, 100/20=5
20/20=1

This means there are 20 groups, each containing 5 cookies and 1 brownie.

Inessa [12570]

The pot has the capability to hold 1/3 more than its current level. Therefore, 1/3 of 5 1/2 quarts equals:

(1/3)(11/2) = 11/6 quarts. Thus, the total capacity of the pot is 11/6 quarts.
