    A person that runs for 15 minutes burns 180 calories. If someone burns 300 calories, how long did tgey run for

    Set up a proportion of minutes to calories where m is the number of minutes per 300 calories:
    15/180 = m/300

    To solve for m, we type this proportion into our search engine and we get:
    m = 25
