If you can mow 2/3 of the lawn in 3/4 hour, how much lawn can you mow in 1 hr?
1 is 3/4 * 4/3
so 2/3 * 4/3 is 8/9
To find out how much lawn you can mow in 1 hour, we can use the given information that you can mow 2/3 of the lawn in 3/4 hour.
First, let's calculate the amount of lawn you can mow in 1/4 hour (which is the quarter of an hour it takes to mow 2/3 of the lawn).
To do this, we need to calculate the fraction of the lawn mowed in 1/4 hour:
(2/3) * (1/4) = 2/12 = 1/6
So, in 1/4 hour, you can mow 1/6 of the lawn.
Now, let's find out how much lawn you can mow in 1 hour, which is four times the amount mowed in 1/4 hour:
(1/6) * 4 = 4/6 = 2/3
Therefore, you can mow 2/3 of the lawn in 1 hour.
