Thunk of it using actual numbers. If he can mow the lawn in 4 hours, how much in 2 hours?
2/4
So, it will take him 2/x hours.
If it takes him x hours, he does 1/x of the job in 1 hour. So, twice that, or 2/x in 2 hours.
If Bill can now a lawn in 'x' hours, what part of the lawn can he now in 2 hours?
A) 2/x
B) x/2
C) 1/2
D) 1/x
Okay, so I've tried this one. I'm thinking, since I don't know how long it takes him to mow the lawn, I think you would divide x from 2? I'm not sure, please help me
