Josiah’s work:

StartFraction 10 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 1,500 EndFraction. StartFraction 10 times 30 over 20 times 30 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 1,500 EndFraction. 300 = x.
He should have found the average of the number of rock songs by averaging 4 and 6 to get 5.
He did not multiply the numerator and denominator by the correct number to equal 1,500.
His answer will be one-half of what he got because he did not divide 10 by 2 when setting up the proportion.
He can only solve the proportion by multiplying the numerator and denominator by a common multiple.
He should have multiplied the numerator and
