Answer 2

Answer:

The number of lawns that can be mowed in 35 hours will be 20 lawns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to mow 4 lawns= 7 hours
∴ Time taken to mow 1 lawn= 7/4 hours
= 1.75 hours (Rate of mowing per lawn)

Now, we've been asked to calculate the number of lawns that can be mowed in 35 hours at the given rate.
= Number of hours given/Number of hours taken to mow one lawn
= $\frac{35}{1.75}$
= 20 lawns.

∴ The number of lawns that can be mowed in 35 hours at the given rate= 20 lawns
