Bert keeps honey bees on his farm. When he first started, he used a 6-frame beehive that held 40 pounds of honey. Now, he uses a 30-frame beehive. It has the same ratio of frames to honey as the smaller beehive.
How much honey does Bert's new beehive hold?
The new beehive has 5 times as many frames as the old one because 30 / 6 = <<30/6=5>>5
So it should hold 5 times as much honey as the small hive or 5 x 40 = <<5*40=200>>200 pounds. Answer: \boxed{200}.
