Teach me how to do these? I fan and give medals!!

Eli spent 36 minutes on the phone while routing 9 phone calls. If he routes 10 phone calls, how much time will Eli have spent on the phone in total? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Please don't just give me the answer, I honestly want to learn how to do these. [=

if you do 36/9, that is how much time he spends on one call. Multiply it by 10, then you have how much time he spent.
