It takes Omar 12 minutes to raise his kite 240 feet into the air. Jasper can raise his kite at three times the rate of speed as Omar can raise his kite. If Jasper raises his kite to a height of 600 feet, how many minutes will it take?
Jasper raises his kite at a rate of 240 feet in 12 minutes, or 240/12=<<240/12=20>>20 feet per minute.
Jasper raises his kite at three times the speed Omar does, or 3*20=<<3*20=60>>60 feet per minute.
To raise his kite 600 feet, it will take Jasper 600/60=<<600/60=10>>10 minutes.
