Grayson took a total of 16 quizzes over the course of 8 weeks. How many weeks of school will Grayson have to attend this quarter before he will have taken a total of 20 quizzes? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.
Set up a proportion of quizzes to weeks, where w is the number of weeks for 20 quizzes:
16/8 = 20/w
Type this proportion into our search engine, and we get:
w = 10
