Answer:
The area of a vegetable garden is 62.5 feet² .
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula
Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth
As given
[tex]Roberto\ measured\ his\ garden\ to\ be\ 10 feet\ by\ 12 \frac{1}{2}\ feet.[/tex]
I.e
[tex]Roberto\ measured\ his\ garden\ to\ be\ 10 feet\ by\ \frac{25}{2}\ feet.[/tex]
[tex]Roberto\ measured\ his\ garden\ to\ be\ 10 feet\ by\ 12.5\ feet.[/tex]
As He plants vegetables in one-half of the garden.
Than
[tex]Area\ of\ vegetable\ garden = \frac{1}{2}\times Length\times Breadth[/tex]
Put the value in the above
[tex]Area\ of\ vegetable\ garden = \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 12.5[/tex]
[tex]Area\ of\ vegetable\ garden = \frac{1\times 125}{2}[/tex]
Area of vegetable garden = 62.5 feet²
Therefore the area of a vegetable garden is 62.5 feet² .
