Question 1041114: suppose that a child's grade point average is directly proportional to that child's hours of outdoor play. Last semester, nine year old Jamie played outdoors an average of 20 hours per week, and her grade point average was 3.25. So far this semester, she has only managed to play outdoors 12 hours/week. What grade point average will this produce?

If the two figures are directly proportional, then:
3.25/20=n/12
20n=39
n=1.95 GPA. ☺☺☺☺
