Answer:

Tim needs to mow 5 more lawns in order to buy his new lawnmower

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Tim has already mowed $30 worth of lawns

2) Tim makes $10 per mow

4) Tim needs to make $75 total for his new mower

5) $75 - $30 = $45

6) Tim needs to make $45 in order to get his new mower

7) 5 x 10 = 50

8) Tim needs to mow 5 lawns in order to make over $45

9) If Tim only mowed 4 lawns he would make $40 and still be $5 short
