Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

He eats 32 hot dogs in 8 minutes

He eats x   hot dogs in 12 minutes.

32/x = 8 / 12              Cross multiply

8x = 32 * 12               Combine

8x = 384                    Divide by 8

8x/8 = 384/8              Do the division

x = 48

He can eat 48 hot dogs in 12 minutes, providing he can stand it.
