Sasha can mow \(\frac{3}{8}\) of an acre of grass in 45 minutes. How many acres of grass does Sasha mow per hour?

For this you need to set up a ratio. Sasha can do you 3/8 in 45 minutes, which is 3/8:45, or (3/8)/45. In an hour, she can go x/60. Set the two equal to each other:
(3/8)/45 = x/60
Cross Multiply:
(3/8) 60 = 45 x
45x = 22.5 x = 1/2 She can do half an acre in an hour

To determine how many acres Sasha can mow per hour, a proportion comparing acres mowed in 45 minutes to acres mowed in 60 minutes is set up. After solving the proportion, it's found that Sasha can mow 0.5 acres per hour. ;
