Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:300 words in Hungarian and 570 in Polish.Step-by-step explanation:I guess you need to know the number of words in Hungarian and in Polish.Let H be the words he said in Hungarian, and P the words he said in Polish. We are told that Sakura uttered a total of 270 more words in Polish than in Hungarian, therefore: P = H + 270 And that I speak for 5 minutes, we know that the speed of words in Hungarian is 150 and in Polish it is 190, therefore: 5 = H / 150 + P / 190 Thus we have two equations and two unknowns, that is, it has a solution, replacing P: 5 = H / 150 + (H +270) / 190 5 = (190 * H + 150 * H + 270 * 150) / (150 * 190) 5 * 150 * 190 = 340 * H + 270 * 150 H = (5 * 150 * 190 - 270 * 150) / 340 H = 300 Therefore he said 300 words in Hungarian. In Polish it would be: P = 300 + 270 = 570 To check we have to: 300/150 + 570/190 = 5 Therefore, Sakura giving the instructions said 300 words in Hungarian and 570 in Polish.
