To calculate the time it will take Carla to read the full assignment, we can use proportions.
Carla takes 10 minutes to read 4 pages.
So, she takes (10/4) minutes to read 1 page. This can be simplified to 2.5 minutes per page.
Therefore, she will take 20 * 2.5 = <<20*2.5=50>>50 minutes to read the full assignment.
