We can write out statements to help out with our flow of thoughts. Then, we multiply both sides by the same number to ensure the proportions are same. To find out how much to multiply by, a trick is to take the final number you want and divide by the initial number. For example, we have 10 minutes. We want to know how many pages in 7 minutes. So we take the final, which is 7, divide by 10. So we get 7/10. Use this number to multiply the pages too. Hope this helps!
