Answer: 20/27 foot

Explanation:

The green pepper plants grew 5 inches in 3/4 month

5 inches =5/9 foot

=> The green pepper plants grew 5/9 foot in 3/4 month

Growth in 3/4 Month = 5/9 foot

=> Growth in 1 Month = (5/9)/(3/4) foot

= ( 5 * 4) /( 9 * 3)

= 20/27 foot

Growth in 1 month = 20/27 feet
