The length of the rectangular vegetable garden is 72 m, and the width is 30 m. Three-fourths of the area of the garden is occupied by cabbage, and half of the remaining area is occupied by carrots. What is the area occupied by carrots?

1) Determine the area of the entire vegetable garden: 72 · 30 = 2160 (m²);
2) Find out what area of the vegetable garden is occupied by cabbage: 210: 4 · 3 = 1620 (m²);
3) Calculate the remaining area: 2160 – 1620 = 540 (m²);
4) Find the area of the vegetable garden occupied by carrots: 540: 2 = 270 (m²).
Answer: 270 m² is occupied by carrots.
