Answer: he had a better pay when he mowed his neighbor's lawn.

Explanation:

Two weeks ago he mowed a neighbor's lawn for half an hour and earned $10. This means that the amount that he would earn per hour is

10/0.5 = $20

Last week he mowed at his uncle's lawn for 3 1/2 hours and earned $30. This means that the amount he would earn per hour is

30/3.5 = $8.6

This week he mowed the lawn of a community center for 2 hours and $30. This means that the amount he would earn per hour is

30/2 = $15

Therefore, he had a better pay when he mowed his neighbor's lawn.
