Lösungsbeispiel
A student reads 500 words in 2.5 minutes.
- 01WPM = 500 / 2.5 = 200
- 02Words per hour = 200 x 60 = 12,000
- 03Seconds per word = (2.5 x 60) / 500 = 0.30
Häufig Gestellte Fragen
What is a good reading speed?
Average adults read 200–250 WPM. Speed readers can reach 400–700 WPM, though comprehension may decrease at higher speeds.
How can I improve my WPM?
Practice regularly, reduce subvocalization (reading aloud in your head), use a pointer or finger to guide your eyes, and expand your peripheral vision.
Does reading speed affect comprehension?
Generally, very fast reading reduces comprehension. The optimal speed balances pace with understanding, typically 250–350 WPM for most people.
