260 calories

65 calories in 15 minutes
60 minutes in an hour
60/15 is 4
4 times 65 is 260

Answer:

65 calories=15 minutes

Find how many minutes it will take Paul to born 1 calory. You divide 65 by 15

65รท15=4.333

Find how many calories lost in 1 hour= 60 minutes multiply by 4.3

60*4.333=260 calories

Therefore,

Paul burns 260 calories in 1 hour
