Question

You are mowing a lawn. After 12 minutes, 52% of the lawn still needs mowed. How long does it take to mow the entire lawn? Write an equation that represents the percent y of the lawn that still needs mowed after x minutes.

Answer 1

for 12 min you did 48% so
for one min you do 4%
x*4%=100%
x=25

Answer 2

The time taken to mow the entire lawn will be 23 minutes.

Let the total time taken be represented by x.

Based on the information given, the total time needed will be:

52% × x = 12

0.52 × x = 12

0.52x = 12

x = 12/0.52

x = 23.08

Therefore, the time taken to mow the entire lawn will be 23 minutes.
