2092.97 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of lawn mover = distance travelled / time requried

= 333/222

= 1.5 feet/hour

I mile = 5280 feet

132 miles = 132 * 5280

= 696960 feet

Speed of car = distance travelled/time

= 696960 / 222

= 3139.46

number of times car is faster = speed of car / speed of lawn mower

= 3139.46 / 1.5

= 2092.97 times
