Answer:

See below:

Explanation:

So we know that she moves 3 lawns in 9 hours, to find how much time she takes per lawn we can divide both sides by three to get our number. We can do this due to the reason below:


(3)/(9)=3:9

Due to this, we can simplify both sides by 3 and get our rate of 1 lawn per 3 hours.

Have a nice day and feel free to ask me if you need more help :D
