  1. The answer: how ever long it took you to do YOUR OWN MATH HOMEWORK. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071215162018AAEs6w2&r=w :D [x]melanieinuyasha
  2. eric fires randy and the whole ordeal takes 3 hrs.
  3. Eric---1/2 acre per hour Randy--1/3acre per hour Together-- 5/6 acre in hour so 5/6-----60 mins 1---------X X=72 min ---------1 hour 12mins
  4. Not 100% sure. But to me it appears that together they can mow 2 acres in five hours so half of that would equal 1 acre in 2 and one half hours.
  5. Too long for Eric's interest. Eric should go his seperate ways and he can then take care of 50% more lawns in the same amount of time.
