Neighbor's job paid better than others.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is incomplete, here is the complete question.

Andre sometimes mows lawns on the weekend to make extra money. Two weeks ago he mowed a neighbors lawn for 1/2 hours and earned $10. Last week he mowed his uncle's lawn for for 3 1/2 hours and earned $30. This week he mowed the lawn of a community center for 2 hours and earned $30. Which job paid better than others? Explain your reasoning.

In this question we will find per hour earning of Andre to mow the lawn. Maximum be the earning will be the better earning than others.

Per hour earnings from neighbor's lawn = $\frac{10}{\frac{1}{2}}$

= $20 per hour

Per hour earnings from uncle's lawn = $\frac{30}{\frac{7}{2}}$

= $\frac{60}{7}$

= $8.57 per hour

Per hour earnings from community center = $\frac{30}{2}$

= $15 per hour

Therefore, job in neighbor's lawn is highly paid.
