In #30# minutes, words expected to be typed are

To calculate the number of words typed in 30 minutes at a rate of 80 words per minute, you can use the formula:

[ \text{Number of words} = \text{Words per minute} \times \text{Number of minutes} ]

Substitute the given values:

[ \text{Number of words} = 80 \text{ words per minute} \times 30 \text{ minutes} ]

[ \text{Number of words} = 2400 \text{ words} ]

Therefore, at a typing speed of 80 words per minute, you would type 2400 words in 30 minutes.
