Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two of them, so we will divide the lawn area mowed by 2.

[tex]\frac{8}{9}/\frac{2}{1}= \frac{8}{9}*\frac{1}{2}=\frac{8*1}{9*2} =\frac{8}{18} =\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

-> This also can be simplified with seeing that 8 / 2 = 4, so [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex], but I wanted to show the whole mathematical process.
