Answer:

The part of the produce sold at the market that is red delicious apples is = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of apples = x

Apples sold are 2/5 of all the Produce sold.

Apples sold = [tex]\frac{2}{5} x[/tex]

Of all the apples that are sold, 1/2 are red delicious apples.

So red delicious apples = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  [tex]\frac{2}{5} x[/tex]

Red delicious apples = [tex]\frac{1}{5 } x[/tex]  

The part of the produce sold at the market that is red delicious apples is = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
