8 feet is the longest side so it would be the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean formula to check.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2+5^2 = 8^2
9 + 25 = 64
34 = 64
This is obviously not true si it is not a right triangle.
(2/3) / 3 = 1/x...2/3 to 3 lawns = 1 to x lawns
cross multiply
(2/3)(x) = (3)(1)
2/3x = 3
x = 3 * 3/2
x = 9/2 or 4 1/2 lawns can be cut with a full tank of gas
