In 20 minutes, John can wrap 10 small boxes and Hank can wrap 12 small boxes. So, Hank can wrap more small boxes in 20 minutes than John can.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

John wraps;

2 small boxes = 4 minutes

1 small box = [tex]\frac{4}{2} = 2\ minutes[/tex]

In 20 minutes,

20 minutes = [tex]\frac{Total\ time}{Time per box} = \frac{20}{2}[/tex]

20 minutes = 10 small boxes

Hank wraps;

3 small boxes = 5 minutes

1 small box =[tex]\frac{5}{3}\ minutes[/tex]

In 20 minutes = [tex]\frac{Total\ time}{Time per box} = \frac{20}{5/3}[/tex]

[tex]20\ minutes=\frac{20*3}{5}\\20\ minutes=\frac{60}{5}\\20\ minutes= 12\ small\ boxes\\[/tex]

In 20 minutes, John can wrap 10 small boxes and Hank can wrap 12 small boxes. So, Hank can wrap more small boxes in 20 minutes than John can.
