Trygg has 3/4 package of marigold seeds. he plants 1/6 of those seeds in his garden and divides the rest equally in to 10 flowerpots. what fraction of package of seeds is planted in each flowerpot?

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 3/4 package and plants 1/6 of seeds.

3/4 * 1/6 = 1/8

He divides the rest equally into 10 flowerpots. What is the rest? In order to know what "the rest" is, you must subtract 1/8 from 3/4. Find the common denominator of 4 and 8 which is 8. Multiple the numerator 3 * 2= 6 with a denominator of 8.

3/4 - 1/8 = 6/8 -1/8

= 5/8

5/8 is left to be divided equally into 10 flowerpots.

5/8 ÷ 10/1

= 5/8 * 1/10

= 5/80

= 1/16

( not my explanation, already posted) :)
