Answer 1

Answer:

2092.97 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of lawn mover= distance travelled/ time requried

                                    = 333/222

                                        = 1.5 feet/hour

I mile= 5280 feet

132 miles= 132× 5280

               = 696960 feet

Speed of car= distance travelled/time

                       = 696960/ 222

                      = 3139.46

number of times car is faster= speed of car/ speed of lawn mower

                                                    = 3139.46/ 1.5

                                                      = 2092.97 times
