In what fraction of the garden did Lucas plant seeds?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1-2/3-1/5=?

1/3-1/5

5/15-3/15=2/15

Lucas planted seeds in 2/15 of the garden.

Lucas plant seeds in [tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex] part of garden.

Given that, Sophie planted seeds in  [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] of the garden and consider that Lucas planted  seeds in x part of garden.

And When they were finished,  [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of the garden still needed seeds.

           [tex]x+\frac{1}{5} +\frac{2}{3} =1\\\\x=1-\frac{13}{15}\\\\x=\frac{2}{15}[/tex]

Hence, Lucas plant seeds in [tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex] part of garden.
