Teresa planted marigolds into 2/8 of her garden and petunias in 3/8 of her garden what fraction of the garden has marigolds and petunias.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the size of her garden

m represent Marigolds

p represents petunias

She planted M into 2/8 of x

and also planted p into 3/8 of x

Fraction of the garden that has M and p will be:

(2/8 of x) +  (3/8 of x)

5/8 x

Hence, 5/8 of her garden has marigolds and petunias
