You need to do the following equation:

(5/12)*(3/10)

5*3=15
12*10=120

15/120=5/40 of the adults who visited were men.

Tuesday at the zoo, 5/12 of the visitors were adults. Of these adults, 3/10 were men.

To find the fraction of the people who visited the zoo on Tuesday were men

Multiply the fraction of men with number of adults

$\frac{3}{10}$ * $\frac{5}{12}$

$\frac{15}{120}$ = $\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{1}{8}$ fraction of the people who visited the zoo on Tuesday were men
