45/ 90 = 120/x

Of you divide 45 and 90 u will get 2 so it tales 2 minutes per book soo 120 x 2=240
240=4 hours
nicole
well it took him 45:90 (45 books 90 mins)


so all you have to is find out how many books per minute

90/45=2


so books per minute


now do 120 x 2= 240

ratio is now 240:120



CHECK!


divide 240 by 120 and you get 2
