Sagot :

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction 5/10 is equal to 1/2 and 1/5 of the girls wears glasses so if you multiply 1/2 and 1/5 you get 1/10.

[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]·[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

When multiplying fractions you multiply across so the numerators are multiplied together and the denominators are multiplied together.
