Aikong spent 3/8 of his time studying Science. He spent 2/5 as much time studying English as Science. WHAT fraction of Aikong's study time was spent studying English?

Respuesta :

3/8*2/5=3/20 time spent studying English

Time spent by Aikong in studying English = [tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex] as much time in studying Science

Time taken in studying Science = [tex] \frac{3}{8} [/tex] of his time

Time spent by Aikong in studying English = [tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex] of [tex] \frac{3}{8} [/tex]

= [tex] \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{3}{8} [/tex]

=[tex] \frac{6}{40} [/tex]

Reducing it to the lowest term.

=[tex] \frac{3}{20} [/tex]
