Aileen can read 1.5 pages for every page her friend can read. Aileen's mom was very excited and she said to Aileen: "So, if your friend reads 20 pages, you can read 25 in the same time period!" Is Aileen's mom correct?

Question

Basically you need to set up a proportion where

Aileen’s pages/friend’s pages = Aileen’s pages/friend’s pages

Or in other words

1.5/1 =? 25/20
Is this a true statement? Is 1.5/1 equal to 25/20?
