To solve this, set up a proportion, crossmultiply, and solve for x.
Let x = the unknown amount of cases in 60 minutes.
44x = 50(60)
44x = 3000
Divide both sides by 44 to isolate variable x
x = 3000 / 44
x ≈ 68.1818 (the 18s repeat forever)
Rounding to the closest case and assuming the rate stays constant, you would get approximately 68 cases in 60 minutes. If you need not round to the nearest case, you would get approximately 68.18 cases in 60 minutes.

Given:
A solution of 60% fertilizer is to be mixed with a solution of 21% fertilizer to form 234 liters of a 43% solution.
To find:
The quantity of the 60% solution in the mixture.
Solution:
Let x be the quantity of the 60% solution and y be the quantity of the 21% solution.
Quantity of mixture is 234. So,
...(i)
The mixture has 43% fertilizer. So,
Multiply both sides by 100.
...(ii)
Using (i) and (ii), we get
Divide both sides by -39.
Putting this value in (i), we get
Therefore, 132 liters of the 60% solution must be used.
