Answer:

295 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been given that the lawn measures 2655 square feet.

Gordan takes  9 minutes to mow it on his riding lawn mower.

Let he mows x square feet in 1 minute.

Then, we have the proportion

[tex]\frac{2655}{9}={x}{1}[/tex]

Solving the equation for x

[tex]x=295[/tex]

Thus, he mows 295 square feet in 1 minute.
