Answer:

She will have 142 watermelons

Explanation:

First let's put our ratio

10 : 71

Since our lemons are now 20 instead of 10 we will divide 20 by 10 to see how many time we multiplied it by.


20 / 10

which equals 2

To find our water melon we will multiply it by 2


71 * 2

which equals 142

She will have 142 watermelons
