Question
Aradhana grows potatoes in `2/5` part of her garden, greens in `1/3` part, and brinjals in the remaining part. On how much of her plot did she plant brinjals?
Sum
Solution
The part of the garden in which Aradhana grew brinjals is given by = `1-2/5-1/3`
= `(1xx15)/(1xx15)-(2xx3)/(5xx3)-(1xx5)/(3xx5)`
= `15/15-6/15-5/15`
= `(15-6-5)/15`
= `4/15`
Hence, Aradhana grew brinjals in `4/15` part of her garden.
