Answer :
5/6 divide by 4 equals 5/24. So each plot would be 5/24 km squared. Multiply that by 3 and it would be 15/24. So the answer would be 15/24 km squared if im correct.
Answer:
Total area of the 3 plots will be [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] square kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Devon buys a plot of the land with an area = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] square kilometers
He divides this land equally into 4 smaller plots.
Therefore, Area of each plot = [tex]\frac{\frac{5}{6} }{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5}{24}[/tex] square kilometers
Now the area of 3 plots = 3 × area of one plot
= [tex]3\times \frac{5}{24}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Therefore, total area of the smaller 3 plots will be [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] square kilometers.
