Question

Tanisha mowed 8 lawns in 10 hours. What was her rate of mowing in lawns per hour?

Answer 1

ANSWER

$0.8\text{ lawns per hour}$

EXPLANATION

To find Tanisha's rate of mowing the lawn per hour, divide the number of lawns mown by the total time (in hours) taken to mow them.

That is:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{8}{10} \\ \Rightarrow0.8\text{ lawns per hour} \end{gathered}$

That is the answer.
