Question

Trixie has 3/4 packages on marigold seeds he plants 1/6 of those seeds in this garden and divides the rest equally into 10 fraction packages of seed is planted in each flower pot

Answer 1

`(7)/(120)` of seed planted in each flower pot.

Explanation:

Given:

Total number of marigold seeds packages Trixie have= ¾

Number of seeds Trixie planted in the garden= 1/6

Number of fraction into which Trixie dived the remaining seed =10

To Find:

Fraction of seed planted in each flower pot=?

Solution:

Seed left after planting 1/6 of seeds in the garden =
`(3)/(4)-(1)/(6)`

=>
`(18-4)/(24)`

=>
`(14)/(24)`

=>
`(7)/(12)`

Now Trixie divides these remaining seeds into 10 parts

=>
`((7)/(12) )/(10)`

=>
`(7)/(12)*(1)/(10)`

=>
`(7)/(120)`
