kendall used 1/2 of a bag of seed to plant 1/10 of her garden. how many bags will kendall use to plant her…

Explanation:

Step1: Set up the proportion

Let (x) be the number of bags for the whole garden. We know (\frac{1}{2}) bag is for (\frac{1}{10}) of the garden. So (\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{10}}=\frac{x}{1}).

Step2: Solve the proportion

Using the rule (\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\Rightarrow ad = bc), we have (x\times\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{2}\times1). Then (x=\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{1}{10}). Since dividing by a fraction is multiplying by its reciprocal, (x=\frac{1}{2}\times10 = 5).

Answer:

5
