Jesse' weekly reading time is an illustration of ratio and proportion.

Jesse' weekly reading time is 200 minutes

Represent the reading time with x.

16% of his weekly reading time is given as 32 minutes

This is represented using the following equation

[tex]16 \% \times x = 32[/tex]

Express 16% as decimal

[tex]0.16\times x = 32[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.16

[tex]x = 32/0.16[/tex]

[tex]x = 200[/tex]

Hence, Jesse' weekly reading time is 200 minutes
