Question

Estimate the part of the garden that is planted with tomatoes. Explain how you decided.

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore $tomatoes\hspace{0.1cm} patch = \frac{3}{8}\hspace{0.1cm}of\hspace{0.1cm} garden$

Step-by-step explanation:

i) from the figure shown pumpkins and lettuce seem to make up half of the of the garden

ii) the other half of the garden seems to be tomatoes and cucumber.

iii) tomatoes seems to be 3 times that of cucumber.

iv) therefore we can say that tomatoes would make up three fourths of half of the garden which would equal to three eights of the garden.

$tomatoes\hspace{0.1cm} patch = \frac{3}{8}\hspace{0.1cm}of\hspace{0.1cm} garden$
