Denzel can mow 1/8 of his yard every 7 minutes. If he had 40 minutes to mow 3/4 of the yard, will he have enough time

No. He is short by 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Denzel can mow 1/8 of his yard every 7 minutes.

Hence he can mow the full yard in 7 (8) = 56 minutes.

Now he has to do 3/4 of his yard and time is 40 minutes

For 3/4 of yard time taken would be = 3/4 (56) = 42 minutes.

If he had 40 minutes to mow 3/4 of the yard, he will not have enough time since he is short of time by 2 minutes.
