(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
8, 10, 12
A helpful equation:
x+x+1+x+2 = 30
Combine like terms
3x + 3 = 30
Subtract 3 from each side
3x = 27
Divide each side by to isolate x
x = 9
x = 9. However, 9 is not an even number. Let’s subtract 1 from 9 to get the first even number.
The first number is 8. The best two even numbers after 8 are 10 and 12.
8 + 10 + 12 = 30, thus this is the sequence.
