To solve the problem, we can start by understanding that since Eva, Beth, and Cara mowed exactly the same area, we divide the total number of lawns by 3. 11 lawns ÷ 3 girls = 3 lawns each (with a remainder of 2) Each girl mowed 3 lawns, accounting for 9 of the lawns. That leaves 2 remaining lawns, which isn't enough for another full lawn per girl. Beth and Cara together mowed those remaining 2 lawns. Thus, if we combine the number of lawns mowed by Beth and Cara together, they mowed 3 + 3 + 2 = 8 lawns in total. So, the answer is that Beth and Cara mowed 8 lawns together.
