ANSWER


0.8\text{ lawns per hour}

Step-by-step 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} (8)/(10) \\ \Rightarrow0.8\text{ lawns per hour} \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
