Mrs. Yan buys 4 red tulips and 5 yellow tulips
a : what fraction of the tulip are red?
B: what fraction of the tulip are yellow
4 + 5 = 9
4/9
5/9
4+5=9 4/9 and 5/9
4+5=9 4/and 5/9
the answer for a an b is 4\9 an 5\9
To determine the fraction of the tulips that are red and yellow, we need to compare the number of red tulips and yellow tulips to the total number of tulips.
Given that Mrs. Yan buys 4 red tulips and 5 yellow tulips, the total number of tulips is 4 + 5 = 9.
a) To find the fraction of tulips that are red, we divide the number of red tulips by the total number of tulips:
Fraction of red tulips = Number of red tulips / Total number of tulips = 4 / 9.
b) Similarly, to find the fraction of tulips that are yellow, we divide the number of yellow tulips by the total number of tulips:
Fraction of yellow tulips = Number of yellow tulips / Total number of tulips = 5 / 9.
Therefore:
a) The fraction of tulips that are red is 4/9.
b) The fraction of tulips that are yellow is 5/9.
4/9 are red
What fraction are yellow?
