Given data;

The area in which cucumbers usually grown are 2/3 x.

Here, x is the total area of the garden.

The area of the cucumber taken to grow raddish are,


\begin{gathered} R=(3)/(4)*(2)/(3)x \\ =(1)/(2)x \end{gathered}

Thus, the area of the raddish is 50% of the total area of the garden sfter the changes.
