Answer :
Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : At West High School, 2/ 5 of the students play a sport.
Of the students who play a sport, 1 /4 play football.
To Find: What fraction of the students at West High School play football?
Solution:
Students play sports = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Of the students who play a sport, [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] play football.
Now the fraction of the students at West High School play football = [tex]\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]
Thus Option A is correct.
Hence [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] at West High School play football.
