Can people help? When a grizzly bear hibernates, its heart rate drops to

10 beats per minute, which is 20% percent of its normal value.

Like you said: 10 beats per minute, which is 20% percent of its normal value.

So: 10 per minute is 20% of the normal rate. You will divide each side by 0.2, which will result in 50 per min
