Answer:

25 lawns

Explanation:

The rate at which she mows lawns is 5 lawns for every eight hours spent mowing

To fiure out how many lawns she is able to mow at this rate you need to divide the common variables by each other, in this case it is hours

Divide 40 hours by 5 hours

40/8 = 5

Then multiply the amount of "sets" of eight hours by the amount of lawns she mows hourly

5 x 5 = 25
