Question

Frank can mow lawns at a constant rate of 6/5 lawns per hour. what is the ratio of lawns to hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 : 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate = $\frac{6}{5}$

But Rate is also equal to number of lawns mowed in a certain amount of time.

Since ratio should always be in terms of simple whole numbers.

If 6/5 lawns are mowed in 1 hour, then,

6 lawns will be mowed in:

=$\frac{6 \times 1}{\frac{6}{5} }$

= 5 hours.

therefore, 6 laws will be mowed in 5 hours.
