To find the fraction of the entire section that is planted with Talisha's green beans, we need to multiply the fractions representing the portion of land Talisha owns (4/5) and the portion of land planted with green beans (3/4).
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together.
So, (4/5) * (3/4) = (4 * 3) / (5 * 4) = 12/20.
But we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4.
So, 12/20 simplifies to 3/5.
Therefore, Talisha's green beans are planted on 3/5 of the entire section of land.
