Answer:

In 6 minutes: 8 balloons

In 45 minutes: 60 balloons

Explanation:

20 animal balloons ⇒ 15 minutes

K animal balloons ⇒ 6 minutes

M animal balloons ⇒ 45 minutes

K = 20 balloons * 6 minutes / 15 minutes

K = 8 animal balloons

M = 20 balloons * 45 minutes / 15 minutes

M = 60 animal balloons
