Question

Homeroom 101 and homeroom 102 share a hallway bulletin board. if home room 101 uses 3/5 of their half of display artwork what fraction of the Bulletin board is used to display home room 101’s artwork?

Answer 1

To solve this problem you must keep on mind the following information:

The problem says that Homeroom 101 can use a half of display artwork (which is
`(1)/(2)`) and they use
`(3)/(5)`. Therefore, you only need to multiply both fractions, as following:

`((1)/(2) )((3)/(5) )=(3)/(10)`

Therefore, as you can see, the answer is:
`(3)/(10)` of the bulletin board is used to display Homeroom 101’s artwork.
