Emma has a small garden. emma's garden is 1/5 beans, 1/8 peas, 1/2 corn. the rest is planted with flowers 1.q: what fraction of emma's garden is planted with vegetables 2.q: are there more flowers or peas in emma's garden

Change to a common denominator.

1 x8 8
5 x8 40

1 x5 5
8 x5 40

1/2 of 40 is 20. (20/40) 

So when you add 8+5+20=33. So the fraction of vegetables in Emma's garden is 33/40

Flowers or peas- 40 (total)-33(vegetable)= 7. (7/40) So there are more flowers (7/40) than peas. (5/40)

Hope it helps
