The amount of gasoline that Mike will need for the entire year to cut the grass in his yard is 6.86 gallons.
Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations, which tells us how the numbers are combined to form a new one.
Given that Mike cut the grass in his yard 7 times with his lawnmower using only 2 gallons of gasoline. Therefore, the amount of gasoline that is required to cut Mike's lawn grass for one time is,
Amount of gasoline needed
= Amount of gasoline for seven times cutting / Number of times cutting is done
= 2 gallon / 7
= 2/7 gallons
Therefore, Mike will need 2/7 gallons of gasoline for a single time he cuts grass in his yard.
Now, the amount of gasoline that will be needed for 24 times cutting the lawn is,
Amount of gasoline
= Gasoline needed for a single time cutting grass × 24
= (2/7) gallons × 24
= 6.86 gallons
Hence, the amount of gasoline that Mike will need for the entire year to cut the grass in his yard is 6.86 gallons.
