Question

Paige mows 1/8 acre in 1/4 hour.How many acres does paige mow per hour?​

Answer 1

We know that Paige mows 1/8 acre in 1/4 hour

We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour

We know that 1/4 of an hour is 15 minutes

W can divide 60 by 15 to find out how many times Paige can mow 1/8 acres of land in an hour.

`60/15=4`

She can mow 1/8 acres of land 4 times in an hour. All we need to do now is multiply 1/8 by 4 to find the total amount of acres she can mow in an hour.

`(1)/(8) *4=(1)/(2)`

Paige can mow 1/2 acre of land per hour
