Jackson mows 1/3 of his neighbors lawn in 1/6 of an hour. At this rate, how many lawns of the same size could he mow in one hour?

he could mow 2 lawns. if he mows 1/3 of the law in 1/6 of an hour, then he can mow 2/3 of the law in 2/6 of an hour. keep adding 1/3 to the amount of lawn mowed as you add 1/6 to the amount of hours, until you hit 6/6 hours, which would be one hour
