35 days

Step-by-step explanation:

All you need to do is find a fraction that is proportional to the first, with a denominator of 49:

$\dfrac{10}{14} = \dfrac{x}{49}$

So you all you do is move the 49 to the other side of the equation. How do you do this? Multiply both sides by 49 (cross multiply):

$\dfrac{10\times49}{14}=\dfrac{x\times49}{49}$

$\dfrac{490}{14}=x$

35=x

So Teddy will work 35 days out of 49 days.
