Understanding Gross Words Per Minute (WPM)

Gross Words Per Minute (WPM) is a measure of typing speed. It is calculated by dividing the total number of words typed by the time taken to type them, expressed in minutes. WPM is commonly used to assess typing proficiency and is a key metric in many typing tests and speed challenges.

For example, if you type 300 words in 5 minutes, your Gross WPM would be 60 (300 words / 5 minutes = 60 WPM).
