    40 in 8 hours, then 40/8 is 5 dogs per hour X 12 hours = 60 dogs in 12 hours! or

    40/8 X 12 = 60!

    By proportion. Let x be the number of dogs you can walk in 12 hours.

    40/8 = x/12

    8x = 40 x 12

    x = 60

    40 dogs in 8 hrs? That's 5 dogs per hr so he can walk 5(12) dogs in 12 hrs = 60 dogs in 12 hrs.

    OR 40 in 8, 20 in 4, 40 + 20 = 60 in 12.

    40/8 = 5 dogs/hour;

    5 dogs *12 hours = 60 dogs/12 hours

    40 = 8, 20 = 4, 8+4 = 60.
