We know that Paige mows 1/8 acre in 1/4 hour
We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour
We know that 1/4 of an hour is 15 minutes
W can divide 60 by 15 to find out how many times Paige can mow 1/8 acres of land in an hour.
[tex]60/15=4[/tex]
She can mow 1/8 acres of land 4 times in an hour. All we need to do now is multiply 1/8 by 4 to find the total amount of acres she can mow in an hour.
[tex]\frac{1}{8} *4=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Paige can mow 1/2 acre of land per hour
