Answer:

Jon can do more push ups faster based on information provided.  

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compare both Jon and Paul find a common rate at which the can do push ups.  In our problem let's use minutes as the rate.

Jon (rate in minutes):

64/4 or 16 push ups/minute

Paul (rate in minutes)

45/3 or 15 push ups/minute

Thus based on rate per minute Jon can do one (1) more than Paul per minute.
