Question

Jasmine picked 2/5 of a bucket of strawberries. Her friend picked 3/4 of the amount Jasmine picked. How much

of a bucket of strawberries did Jasmine's friend pick?

Answer 1

if you divide 3/4 from 2/5, you get 8/15

Answer 2

If Jasmine picked 4/10 (which is equivalent to 2/5) then that would mean Jasmine's friend picked 3/10.

If Jasmine picked 4 berries out of 10, that means Jasmines friend picked 3 berries out of ten.

Explanation:

2/5 x 4 = 8/20

8/20 x 5 = 40/100

three quarters of 40/100 is 30/100
