Additive Comparison

Hope I helped
To solve this problem, we should set up a proportion, letting x represent our unknown number of miles that Wayne walks in one hour.
1/6 mile / 1/10 hours = x miles / 1 hour
Now we use cross-products or the multiplication of the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other fraction, setting these two numbers equal. The resulting equation is:
1/6 = 1/10x
Finally, we must divide both sides by 1/10 to cancel it out on the right side of the equation and get the variable x alone.
x = 5/3 or 1 2/3
Therefore, Wayne walks 1 2/3 miles per hour.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Not so simple. See discussion below
Discussion:
Consider these two examples:
0<= f < = 1, then (2/3) * f < (2/3) * 1 = 2/3
so the product is less than either of the factors
f = -5, then (2/3)* (-5/1) = -10/3
so the product is actually larger than the factor -5 !
In other words, the general answer depends upon the sign as well as value of the fraction. The problem probably meant that multiplying a positive fraction by a number less than 1 and >= 0 makes the product smaller. But as your see from the above examples, a more fine grained analysis is required for a full answer.
Thank you,

Method 1:
In order to solve for this, we have to find out how many words Ryan can type in one minute first.
can be simplified into 
(This is just normal simplifying, all you had to do was divide both sides by 12)
Now that we have our rate, , we can figure out how many words Ryan can type in 20 minutes
* 20/20 = 
Ryan can type 1000 words in 20 minutes
Method 2:
You can use two fractions in order to solve this equation:
= 
The 'x' on the right is a variable because we don't know what the number is.
Simplify:
=
Cross multiply:
1 * x = 50 * 20
x = 1000
Ryan can type 1000 words in 20 minutes
Good luck! If you have any questions, just ask :))
