The length of the rectangular garden is 12 meters, and the width is 3 times less than the length

The length of the rectangular garden is 12 meters, and the width is 3 times less than the length. 1/4 planted with potatoes. The rest is taken up by other vegetables. What part of the garden is occupied by other vegetables?

The field width is:

12 meters / 3 times = 4 meters.

Now let’s define the area:

S = 12 m * 4 m = 48 m2.

Now we will find out how much area the potato occupies. To do this, we need to subtract 1/4 from 48 m2. Will be:

48/4 * 1 = 12 m2.

If we subtract the area on which the potatoes grow from the total area of the garden, then we find out how much of the total area is allotted for the rest of the vegetables:

48 – 12 = 36 m2.

To summarize: the rest of the vegetables occupy 3/4 of this garden.
