Answer:

$\frac{9}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of a total of 1, $\frac{15}{20}$ went to the fair and $\frac{12}{16}$ OF THOSE, bought atleast one book.

To find the fraction of students who bought at least one book, we will multiply both the fractions. That is the answer. Shown below:

$\frac{15}{20}*\frac{12}{16}\\=\frac{3}{4}*\frac{3}{4}\\=\frac{9}{16}$

Answer is $\frac{9}{16}$
