You can do this by converting this into a ratio or a fraction
Ratio:
1 lb for 4 guinea pigs
1:4
If he was 8 lbs for x guinea pigsit would be
1:4
8:x
Multiply the first ration until the one is equal to 8, then whatever the four turns into is x
Fraction: (easier way)
1/4 (1lb for 4 guinea pigs)
8/x (8lb for x guinea pigs)
1/4 = 8/x
Multiply one until it is equal to 8
Correspond that to the 4
1*8 = 8
4*8 = 32
32 guinea pigs
You must travel at 42 mph for 4 hours
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Time varies inversely as rate of motion
Let "t" be the time required
Let "r" be the rate of motion
Then, we get

Where, "k" is the constant of proportionality
<em><u>You travel 3 hours at a rate of 56 mph</u></em>
Substitute t = 3 and r = 56 in eqn 1

<em><u>Find the rate you must travel for 4 hours</u></em>
r = ? and t = 4
Substitute t = 4 and k = 168 in eqn 1

Thus you must travel at 42 mph for 4 hours
Answer:
It's B
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply 20 by both sides.
n = 20(6/8)
Multiply that out and that is your answer :)
