    8520 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve, make a proportion

    142 words in 1 minute, and x words in 60 minutes (1 hour).

    142/1=x/60

    Cross multiply

    142*60=1*x

    8520=x

    Another way to solve is to know that each hour has 60 minutes, and she can read 142 words in 1 minute. So, we can just multiply 60 and 142.

    60*142=8520
