Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we can first find out how many minutes is 1/5th of an hour which is: 12 mins.

Now we know it will take 15 sets of 12 minutes to water the full lawn so we can multiply 15*12 to get our answer.

15*12 = 180

Now we divide 180 (minutes) by 60 (minutes) to find out how many hours that is:

180/60 = 3 hours

Hope this helped! If possible please leave a thanks so I can continue to help out others :),

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of an hour is 12 minutes.

So 1/15 of a lawn takes 12 minutes to water.

Next you multiply 15, how many times 1/15 of a lawn is watered, and multiply it by 12, the time it takes to water 1/15 of a lawn.

So you would get 180 minutes.

Finally you convert it to hours. To do this, you divide it by 60, how many minutes in and hour, and should get an answer of 3 hours.

Hope this helps!
