The correct answer should be A because you have to have a common denominator in order to solve so you take 5/6x and 4/6x and solve.

one third of a land is on maize, a fifth of the remainder is on potatoes and the rest which is 0.5 ha is on beans. how much of t

disa [49]

Answer: $1250\ m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Total land.

Then for Maize = $\dfrac{x}{3}$

For Potatoes = $\dfrac15(x-\dfrac {x}{3})=\dfrac15(\dfrac{2x}{3})=\dfrac{2}{15}x$

For beans = $x- (\dfrac{x}{3}+\dfrac{2}{15}x)=0.5 \ ha$

$\Rightarrow\ x- (\dfrac{5x+2x}{15})=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ x- (\dfrac{7x}{15})=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{15x-7x}{15}=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{8x}{15}=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=0.5\times\dfrac{15}{8} \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=0.9375 \ ha$
