Answer:

4/3 of an hour, or 1.33 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

It took Mike 1/3 of an hour to mow 1/4 of the yard. This means when it has been 1 full hour, he would have mowed 3/4 of the yard, because [tex]\frac{1}{3} *3=1[/tex] hour. Because of this, we can multiply 1/3 by 4, because he has to mow 4 parts of his lawn, and he can do 1 part in 1/3 of an hour.

[tex]\frac{1}{3} *\frac{4}{4} =4/3[/tex] hours
