x + 10X = 132
11x = 132
x= 12

What fraction of Emmas garden is planted with vegetables

Answers

We know that different gardens can have different fractions of vegetables
in them. That right there tells us that we need some information about the
garden in order to know the fraction, because not all gardens are the same.
Since you haven't told us anything about Emma's garden, therefore, we have
no way to answer the question.

What is 9/10 take away 4/10

Answers

$(9)/(10) - (4)/(10) = (9-4)/(10) =\boxed{\bf{(5)/(10)=(1)/(2)}}$

9/10 - 4/10 is just 9-4=6 and put that over 10 so you get 6/10. If you have to reduce just do it by 2 on both. 6/2= 3 and 10/2=5 so 2/5.
