If 3 people take the day off, they will need (9 + 3/5) hours to mow the lawn. The correct option is B.
<h3>
How many hours will it take to mow the lawn?</h3>
Let's say that each person works at a rate R.
8 people can mow the lawn in 6 hours, then we can write:
(8*R)*6 hours = 1 lawn.
Solving for R:
R = (1/48 lawns per hour).
If 3 people take the day off, then the lawn is mowed by 5 people in a time T, then we need to solve:
(5*R)*T = 1 lawn.
Replacing the value of R:
(5/48 lawns per hour)*T = 1 lawn.
Then we have:
T = (48/5) hours.
We can rewrite that as:
T = (45/5 + 3/5) hours
T = 9 + 3/5 hours.
Then we conclude that the correct option is B.
