Helen can collect 240 flowers in 20 minutes.

You need to find the number of flowers she can collect in 35 minutes.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ♡ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1: Find the unit rate of Helen collecting flowers. To find the unit rate, just divide 240 by 20, to see how many flowers she can collect per minute.

2: Multiply the number of flowers Helen can collect in 1 minute by 35 (since 1 times 35 is 35).

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ♡ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1: 240 divided by 20 is 12. Helen can collect 12 flowers per minute. The unit rate of Helen collecting flowers is 12 flowers per minute.

2: Since Helen can collect 12 flowers per minute, you need to find out how many she can collect in 35 minutes. To get from 1 minute to 35 minutes, you multiply 1 by 35. So you need to multiply 12 by 35 as well. 12 times 35 is 420. So Helen can collect 420 flowers in 35 minutes.
