To find: fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class
Solution:
Fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for four fifth classes = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
So, fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class = [tex]\frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{6})=\frac{1}{24}[/tex]
