1/(2+2) = 1/4
Thanks I really needed help
To find the fraction of new shoes that are rain boots, we need to determine the total number of new shoes and the number of rain boots.
Given:
Harry got a pair of rain boots and a pair of tennis shoes, which makes a total of 2 pairs of shoes.
Kate got a pair of tennis shoes and a pair of sandals, which makes a total of 2 pairs of shoes.
To find the total number of new shoes:
Harry's shoes + Kate's shoes = 2 pairs + 2 pairs = 4 pairs of shoes
Now, we need to find the number of rain boots:
Harry got a pair of rain boots = 1 pair of rain boots
Finally, let's calculate the fraction of new shoes that are rain boots:
Fraction of rain boots = Number of rain boots / Total number of new shoes
Fraction of rain boots = 1 pair / 4 pairs
Therefore, the fraction of new shoes that are rain boots is 1/4.
