Question

Benny is mowing his lawn. He and his family have 8.84 acres. Benny mows 1.09 acres on Monday, 0.75 acres on Tuesday, and 3.33 acres on Thursday. How many acres does Benny have left to mow? A. 3.76 B. 30.7 C. 3.67 D. 0.367

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 3.67

Explanation:

The total number of acres mowed is

1.09 + 0.75 + 3.33

which adds up to

1.09 + 0.75 + 3.33 = 5.17

Now since the total number of acres is 8.84

the number of acres left for moving is

8.84 - 5.17 = 3.67

which is the answer given by choice C,

Hence, choice C is the correct answer!
