Answer:

200 minutes ; 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you write a proportion in the form

miles/minutes = miles/minutes

you would get 3/50 = 12/x

from there you cross multiply to get

3x=600, and solve that to get 200 minutes.


another way was to see that 12 is 3*4, and multiply 50 by 4 to get the same answer.
