It deals with proportions. You put hotdogs over minutes.
Like 10 hotdogs over 4 minutes because that's how long it took to eat those hotdogs.
Then put 18 minutes on the bottom of the next fraction.
Then you cross multiply.
10 x 18 which equals 180.
Then you divide. 180/4
Which equals 45 hotdogs.
He ate 45 hotdogs in 18 minutes.
10 hotdogs in 4 minutes
45 hotdogs in 18 minutes.
