The garden plot measuring 5.2 x 6.5 m is planted with greenery, which makes up 0.4 parts of the entire garden. What is the area of the vegetable garden?

1. The area of the garden plot planted with greenery:
5.2 * 6.5 = 33.8 (m2).
2. We take into account that the plot with greenery is 4/10 parts, which means that the rest of the garden will be 6/10 parts of the total garden. Let’s make a proportion and determine the area of the remaining part of the garden:
33.8 m2 – 4/10,
X m2 – 6/10.
X = 33.8 * 6/10: 4/10 = 50.7 (m2).
3. The total area of the garden:
33.8 + 50.7 = 84.5 (m2).
Answer: The total area of the garden is 84.5 m2.
