Want this question answered?
it's a math problem, i think. 12 minutes * 70 words/minute = 840 words
Like any such question it depends. Base: average person hand writes at about 33 words/min. A study in 1999 by Karat C.M., Halverson C., Horn D. and Karat J. split average people in three groups, "fast" typists, this would be your average typist, even professional typists, average around 40 word per minute (wpm) "moderate" around 35 and "slow" typists around 23 wpm. That said, some data entry jobs, especially time-sensitive data-entry jobs require that employees type at around 80-90wpm. It is rare, but there are typists who exceed 120wpm, and i think the record still stands from 1946 at a pretty staggering 212 wpm. (Note: word is standardized to 5 characters)
If two typists type 2 pages in 5 minutesIn 1 minute they will type 2/5pagestherefore 2 typists type 2/5 pages in 1 minute1 typist will type (2/5)/2 pages in 1 minute(he will type less)=1/5 pages.... eqn 1x typists type 20 pages in 10 minutesin 1 minute they will type 20/10 pages=2 pagestherefore x typists type 2 pages in 1 minute1 typist will type 2/x pages............eqn 2equating eqn 1 and 2 gives 2/x=1/5therefore x =10 typists
If Mary is a Secretary, then she can type fast.
200 words (not world, presumably) in 5 minutes is 200/5 = 40 words per minute. So 5400 words would take 5400/40 = 135 minutes or 2 hours 15 minutes,
In my experiance it tends to be above at least 60 words per minute. Second answer: Professional typists usually type at 50-80 words per minute.
The average person types 40 words per minute. Professionals may reach 80/90 and advanced typists up to 120

Net words per minute is determined by measuring a typist's average gross speed in words per minute over a ten-minute period and subtracting the number of errors made during that period.
These days, most companies use computer programs to measure the speed of the typist. (keyboardist, if you are being technical) They take the words per minute that you type and subtract the number of errors from your speed.
A professional typist types a lot of words per minute because their jobs depend on it. Many type between 60 and 75 words per minute if not more. It is possible to build your typing speed by practicing and taking advantage of speed typing tests.

It means that you need to be a fast enough typist to be able to accurately press on average 8000 keys per hour. That's the same as 133 keystrokes per minute or roughly 26 words per minute. A professional typist can easily manage 50-70 words per minute (15000 keys per hour), so 8000 KPH is a pretty reasonable request.
