After 2

After we planted flowers in 2/5 of our garden, 24 m remained unplanted. How many meters is the garden in total? If the total area of the garden is 1, what is the proportion of the remaining area?

Final Answer:

a =  40 m
b =  3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5a+24=a  2/5 a+24=a  3a=120  a=3120=40  a=40=40 m
b=12/5=53=0.6
