Question

Lilianantakes 4 breaths per 10 seconds during yoga at this rate about how many breaths would liliana take in 2 minuets of yoga

Answer 1

Lilianan takes 4 breaths per 10 seconds during yoga

Let x be the number of breaths in 2 minutes

liliana take in 2 minuets of yoga

2 minutes = 120 seconds

Now we make a proportion using breathe and seconds

$\frac{Breathe}{seconds} = \frac{Breathe}{seconds}$

$\frac{4}{10} = \frac{x}{120}$

4 * 120 = x * 10

10x = 480 (Divide by 10 on both sides)

x = 48

liliana takes 48 breather in 2 minuets of yoga.

Answer 2

Firstly lets find how many breaths in one minute.

Since one minute equals 60 seconds we need to multiply 4 and 60

4x60=240

Lillian takes 240 breathes in one minute; but since we need to know how many breaths in TWO minutes, we multiply 240 and 2.

240x2=480

So Lillian takes 480 breaths in two minutes.
