your answer is 20 minutes

Final answer:

Jenny would take about 20 minutes to send 8 texts that average 80 words each.

Explanation:

To find out how long it would take for Jenny to send 8 texts that average 80 words each, we can calculate the total number of words she needs to send and divide it by her rate of 32 words per minute.

First, let's calculate the total number of words: 8 texts x 80 words per text = 640 words.

Next, divide the total number of words by Jenny's rate: 640 words ÷ 32 words per minute = 20 minutes.

Therefore, it would take Jenny about 20 minutes to send 8 texts that average 80 words each.
