Answer 1

Answer:

Assuming he works at a constant rate, the daily rate Mark rakes lawns in the fall is 40% of the daily rate he mows lawns in the summer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fall:

5 neighbors' lawns / 2.5 hours = 2 lawns per hour

Summer:

6 neighbours' lawns / 1.2 hours = 5 lawns per hour

2 x 100% / 5 = 40%

2 is 40% of 5
