Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

For these types of problems, we can use cross - multiplication.

4/32 = x/40

Notice that since 40 and 32 are both measured in minutes, we put them on the same line.

Now, like the name suggests, we cross multiply the equation, by doing 4 * 40 = 32 * x. Now, we are left with 160 = 32x. After solving this, we get the answer 5.
