Answer:

[tex] \frac{176}{50m} = \frac{3.5}{1} [/tex]

RESULT

Use ratio and proportion.

Let x be the time it takes Dionne to fold 210 packing boxes:

[tex] \frac{175}{50} = \frac{210}{x} \\ \\ cross \: multiply \\ \\ \\ 175x = 50(210) \\ \\ x = \frac{50(210)}{175} \\ \\ x = \frac{50(210)}{175} \\ \\ x = 60[/tex]

So, it will take Dionne 60 minutes to fold 210 packing boxes.

Let y be the time it takes Elias to fold 210 packing boxes:

[tex] \frac{120}{40} = \frac{210}{x} \\ \\ cross \: multiply \\ \\ \\ 120x = 40(210) \\ \\ x = \frac{40(210)}{120} \\ \\ \\ x = 70[/tex]

So, it will take Elias 70 minutes to fold 210 packing boxes.
