Answer:
60 lines can be typed in the page
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of the page = 17 inches
Length of the margin = 0.5-inch
length of one line = 4/15
To Find:
The number of lines that can be typed on a page
Solution:
Let the number of line that can be typed be n
then
n <= [tex]n \leq \frac{\text { total length of the page}-\text {top margin} - \text{ bottom margin}}{\text{size of each line }}[/tex]
the top and bottom margins are 0.5 inches each
so we will be having
=> [tex]n \leq \frac{17 -0.5-0.5}{\frac{4}{15}}[/tex]
=>[tex]n \leq \frac{16}{\frac{4}{15}}[/tex]
=>[tex]n \leq \frac{16\times 15}{4}[/tex]
=>[tex]n \leq\frac{240}{4}[/tex]
=> [tex]n \leq 60[/tex]
