Question 1188507: Liz is taking guitar lessons and practices every night. Yesterday, she played a total of 40 chords in 8 minutes. Today, she will play chords for 5 minutes.
If she plays at the same rate, how many chords will Liz play today?

Same rate would be 5 chords per minute, 40/8.
So she would play 25 chords in 5 minutes.
