After 2

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

Correct 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
