In the winter, Grandma Helen knits scarves for her family members. It took her 70 minutes to make a 35-inch-long scarf for her grandson, Sean. Now, she wants to make a 50-inch-long scarf for her granddaughter, Shannon.
If Grandma Helen knits at the same rate, how many minutes will it take her to make Shannon's scarf?

First find her knitting rate: 70 minutes ÷ 35 inches = 2 minutes per inch.
For a 50-inch scarf: 2 minutes/inch × 50 inches = 100 minutes.
