Answer:
4/5 hour per lawn
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find Hunter's rate in hours per lawn.
Therefore, we must divide the number of hours by the number of lawns.
[tex]\frac{hours}{lawns}[/tex]
He mowed 10 lawns in 8 hours.
[tex]\frac{8}{10}[/tex]
This fraction can be simplified. Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 2.
[tex]\frac{8/2}{10/2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
If we multiply by 60, we can find how many minutes this is. (60 minutes = 1 hour)
[tex]\frac{4}{5}*60=48[/tex]
His rate is 4/5 hour per lawn or 48 minutes per lawn.
