Kyle was asked to make a model to solve the following problem.

Mr. Bloom is creating a garden. 4/10 of his garden will be roses and 2/10 will be made up of sunflowers. How much room does Mr. Bloom have left after planting the roses and sunflowers?



Kyle said the answer was 2/5. Do you agree? Justify your reasoning in the post below.

Respuesta :

Answer:

yes, kyle is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

4/10 + 2/10 = 6/10

there are 4/10 left after planting which can be reduced by 2 = 2/5

Answer:

No, it is 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you divide by 2  for both bottom and top of  the fractions and you will get 1/5, and 2/5 and you add them together and you get 3/5.
