Of the books in a personal library, 2/5 are fiction. Of these books, 3/5 are paperback. What fraction of the books in the library are fiction and paperbacks?

Respuesta :

In order to get the fraction of books that are both fiction and paperbacks, we multiply both fractions:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{25}[/tex]

This way, 6/25 of the books in the library are both fiction and paperbacks
