Q: It takes Jason 30 minutes to cut 1 lawn in his neighborhood. If he cuts 8 yards on both Saturday and Sunday, how many hours does he spend cutting grass?
A: 8
Explain how we arrive at this answer:
Explanation: He cuts 8 yards on both Saturday and Sunday so that's 2 * 8 = 16 yards. It takes him 30 minutes to cut 1 yard so it takes him 30 * 16 = 480 minutes. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour and it takes him 480 minutes so that's a total of 480 / 60 = 8 hours.
