Answer 2

Answer:

15/25 = 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to solve the fraction of people who bought fewer than 4 fishes. In the statement given we see that 15 people have purchased less than 4 fishes.

We can express this as 15 out of 25 and if we want to express in fraction form we can write it like this:

15/25 (/ for fraction sign)

Now we have to simplify this,

We can simplify by finding the GCF (Greatest common factor)

The GCF for 15 and 25 is 5

So, we divide both numbers by 5 which gives us 3/5

And this is ur final answer

Hope this helps :)
