Answer 2

We recall the concept of proportion

Direct proportion: It is a proportion of two quantities when the ratio of the two quantities is constant.

Given:

$3.5$ breaths in $15$ seconds.

$1$ minute is $60$ seconds

Breaths in $60$ seconds$=\frac{60*3.5}{15}$

                                   $=14$

Nathan's breath per minute is $14$ breaths per minute
