a survey of teenagers, 3/4 responded that they got regular exercise, and 5/9 of those said that soccer wasIn their main form of exercise. What fraction of the teenagers mainly exercise by playing soccer? (1 point) Responses 8/13 8/13 5/12 5/12 1 7/20 1 7/20 27/20
To find the fraction of teenagers who mainly exercise by playing soccer, we need to multiply the fractions representing the proportion of teenagers who got regular exercise and played soccer.
First, we have 3/4 of the teenagers who responded that they got regular exercise. Then, we have 5/9 of those who said that soccer was their main form of exercise.
So, the fraction of teenagers who mainly exercise by playing soccer is (3/4) * (5/9) = 15/36 = 5/12.
Therefore, the correct answer is 5/12.
