A gardener uses 2/3 of a greenhouse for growing roses, with 3/8 of this space for tea roses. What part of the space is used to grow tea roses?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of the WHOLE is used for roses.

OF THAT 2/3, 3/8th is used for specific rose [tea rose].

To find the fractional amount of total greenhouse area for TEA ROSE, we need to multiply both the fractional parts:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{8}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Hence, we know 1/4th of the total greenhouse area is used for growing tea roses.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] part of the space is used to grow tea roses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of a greenhouse for growing roses. Out of

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex],  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of this space for tea roses.

To find the space is used to grow tea roses,  we need to multiply both the fractions  [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]  and  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2}{3} .\frac{3}{8} = \frac{6}{24}[/tex]

Simplifying the fraction both the numerator and the denominator by 6, we get

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
