<em><u>The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is:</u></em>

\frac{16}{40} = \frac{3}{h}

h = 7.5

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

16 walls in 40 hours 3 walls in h hours

Which means,

16 walls build in 40 hours

Then 3 walls in h hours

We have to write a proportion

The number of walls and the number of hours are proportion

Therefore, we get,

\frac{16}{40} = \frac{3}{h}

Cross multiply and solve for h

16 \times h = 3 \times 40\\\\16h = 120\\\\h = \frac{120}{16}\\\\h = 7.5

Thus the proportion is solved
