A rectangular garden is divided into 1000 parts. 598 of it have plants. What is the decimal representing the unplanted parts? Write in standard decimal form.

Sagot :

Answer: 0.402

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 parts and 589 planted parts.

Since it’s asking for unplanted you have to subtract the unplanted parts from the number of all the parts.

1000 - 598 = 402 unplanted parts (in fraction).

402/1000 = 0.402 (in decimal)
