Maxine and Sammie have to also mow their parking strips that are the

same size. Maxine can mow her parking strip in 6 minutes and Sammie
can mow his parking strip in 9 minutes. After how many minutes will
Sammie have twice as much grass to mow as Maxine?

I believe the answer is 3 minutes

At the 3 minute mark, Maxine will be half way done and Sammie will still have 6 minutes left to mow the grass
