Tim loves reading fiction, and he can read 100 pages in 2 hours. how many pages he can read in 48 mins.

First, convert 2 hours into minutes. You know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. Thus, 2 hours = 120 minutes.

Set a ratio to solve for x, the number of pages Tim can read in 2 hours (120 minutes). The numerator represents the number of pages read, and the denominator represents the amount of time elapsed.

Use the cross-multiplying method, where you multiply x by 120 and 48 by 100.

To isolate x, divide both sides of the equation by 120.

The answer is x = 40.

Therefore, Tim can read 40 pages in 48 minutes.

Hope this helps! :)

step-by-step explanation:

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.
