Jami can mow acre 1/6 in 8 minutes If her rate is constant, can Jami mow 1 1/2 acres in one hour? Explain your reasoning

Time taken by Jami to mow 1/6 acres is 8 minutes=8/60=2/15 hours.

Rate at which Jami is mowing will be:

rate = (number of acres) / (time) = (1/6) / (2/15)

=1/6:2/15

=1/6*15/2

=5/4 acres/hour

=1.25 acres/hour

From above calculations we conclude that Jami cannot mow 1.5 acres in 1 hour
