Question

Answer 1

Answer:

$15 for a lawn, $105 for seven lawns.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is about the direct ratio problem. Logically, you will earn more if you mow more lawn.

The scheme for this ratio is given below:

15 n_________n lawns

   x_________ 1 lawn

$x=\frac{15n*1}{n} = 15$

You will earn 15 dollars for mowing a lawn

When you mow 7 lawns, the scheme will be in this manner:

15 n__________n lawns

    x__________7 lawns

$x=\frac{15n*7}{n}=105$

You will earn 105 dollars
