2 hours=2×60=120 minutes2 \text{ hours} = 2 \times 60 = 120 \text{ minutes}

2. Calculate the total number of words typed in 120 minutes

Number of 2-minute intervals =1202=60= \frac{120}{2} = 60
Total words =60×90=5400= 60 \times 90 = 5400

Number of 10-minute intervals in 2 hours (120 minutes) = 120÷10=12120 \div 10 = 12
Incorrect words = 12×9=10812 \times 9 = 108

2. Calculate the total number of correct words

Total words typed in 2 hours = 54005400 (from part a)
