    there are 4 1/4 hours per 1 hour

    so 1/6 x 4 = 4/6 which reduces to 2/3

    (1/6) / (1/4) = x / 1 ... 1/6 acre to 1/4 hr = x acres to 1 hr

    cross multiply because this is a proportion

    (1/4) (x) = (1/6) (1)

    1/4x = 1/6

    x = 1/6 * 4/1

    x = 4/6 which reduces to 2/3 ... so she can mow 2/3 of an acre in 1 hr <=
