    Each page has average of 300 words so total no. of words are 30000.
    Rate= 45 words/min
    so in case of option D, to meet the deadline of 6:00 pm it is 11 hours and 7 mins, so by calculating no. of words to be typed in 11 hours and 7 mins we found 30015.
    so approxly D is correct answer......../
