If Clara can read 4 pages in 10 minutes, she can read 1 page in 10/4 = <<10/4=2.5>>2.5 minutes.
So, it will take her 2.5 * 20 = <<2.5*20=50>>50 minutes to read the full assignment. Answer: \boxed{50}.
To determine how long it will take Clara to read the full assignment, we need to calculate the number of four-page increments that make up the total number of pages. Since Clara can read four pages in 10 minutes, we divide the total number of pages (20) by four to find the number of four-page increments: 20 ÷ 4 = 5.
Since Clara can read four pages in 10 minutes, we can multiply the number of four-page increments (5) by the time it takes her to read four pages (10 minutes).
5 increments × 10 minutes per increment = 50 minutes.
Therefore, it will take Clara 50 minutes to read the full assignment.
So the correct answer is 50.
Clara can read 4 pages in 10 minutes.
To find out how many minutes it will take her to read 20 pages, we can set up a proportion:
4 pages / 10 minutes = 20 pages / x minutes
Cross multiplying, we get:
4x = 200
Dividing both sides by 4, we find:
x = 50
Therefore, it will take Clara 50 minutes to read the full assignment. Therefore, the correct answer is 50.
