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.
