Javier is planting a rectangular garden that will be 7 1/2 yards long and 1 yard wide. He will plant 1/5 of the garden with tomatoes. How many square years of the garden will be planted with tomatoes?

1 1/2 or 1.5 yards of the garden will be planted with tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation: First lets find the area f the garden by multiplying length x width.

7 1/2 x 1 = 7 1/2 yard

Now, we need to find what number is 1/5 of 7 1/2.

First convert the fractions to decimals to make it easier. 1/5 as a decimal is .2 and 7 1/2 as a decimal is 7.5.

Simply multiply .2 x 7.5 to get the amount of square yards planted with tomatoes.

.2 x 7.5 = 1.5.

So 1 1/2 or 1.5 yards of the garden will be planted with tomatoes.
