Suzy transferred some files from Mason's laptop for her school project into her flash drive. The drive had 25 megabytes on it before the transfer, and the transfer happened at a constant rate. After 100 seconds, there were 500 megabytes on the drive.

What was the speed of the transfer of megabytes per sec

Answer: 5 megabytes per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Capacity of Suzy drive = 25 megabytes Time taken for file transfer = 100 seconds

Volume of file transferred = 500 megabytes megabytes

The speed of the transfer in megabytes per second = (Volume of file transferred / Time taken for file transfer)

i. e 500 megabytes / 100 seconds

= 5 megabytes per second

Thus, Suzy's transfer to her flash drive was at a rate of 5 megabytes per second
