80 ...........................
Okay so 300 meters per minute and he ran 8 minutes..
300x8=2400
He still had 600 left to go...
2400+600=3,000
He had to run three times longer than Eric...
3000/3=1000
Does that make sense?
It's the first one. y = 3x
proportional means they are just some multiple of the other.
