Question

The square plot given below has a green portion which is $0.25$ of the total plot. So, the fractional representation of this part is .

• A. $\frac{1}{4}$
• B. $\frac{1}{3}$
• C. $\frac{1}{5}$
• D. $\frac{1}{6}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{1}{4}$

Here, we can see that the green part of the plot is $0.25$ of the total plot area.

Now, changing $0.25$ to fractional form,
$\Rightarrow 0.25=\frac{25}{100}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{25}{100}=\frac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the part of plot which is covered by the garden is $\frac{1}{4}$ of the total area.
