Nisha has invited a group of friends over for a spaghetti dinner. There will be eight people dining, and Nisha would like to prepare 1 1/2 cups of cooked spaghetti per person. How many 16 oz. packages of dry spaghetti must Nisha use, and in how much water should she cook the pasta? Remember, it takes 4 oz. of dry spaghetti to produce 2 cups of cooked spaghetti, and each 4 oz. of dry spaghetti requires 1 quart of water.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
