This week the number of lawns "times" 25 and his allowance = $345

Therefore...

25x + 20 = 345

- 20 -20

25x = 325

Now divide both sides by the coefficient (25)... and that will be the number of lawns he mowed.

Hope this helps!

$4900000\times3600=17640000000$ cubic feet

Since , there are 2080 hours in a typical year.
