\bf \begin{array}{ccll} project&hours\\ \cline{1-2} (1)/(10)&(3)/(5)\\\\ x&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~(1)/(10)~~}{x}=\cfrac{~~(3)/(5)~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{~~(1)/(10)~~}{(x)/(1)}=\cfrac{3}{5}\implies \cfrac{1}{10}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{3}{5} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1}{10x}=\cfrac{3}{5}\implies 5=30x\implies \cfrac{5}{30}=x\implies \cfrac{1}{6}=x
