Answer 2

Concept:

To determine the value of a single unit from a specified multiple, use the unitary method. How to determine the value of one pen, for instance, if the cost of 40 pens is Rs. 400. The unitary method can be used to complete it. Additionally, after determining the value of a single unit, we can multiply that value by the number of units needed to determine the value of the additional units. The concept of ratio and proportion is mostly applied using this way.

Given:

Maria mows 2/3 of a lawn in 1/5 hour.

Find:

How many similar-sized lawns can she mow in one hour

Solution:

In one hour = 2/3/1/5

= 10/3 lawn

=3 1/3 lawn

Therefore, Maria mows 3 1/3 of the lawn in hour.
