At the hot dog stand, 1/3 of all hot dogs served had sesame buns, 2/5 of all hot dogs had ketchup, and 1/10 of all hot dogs were plain. what does the product of 1/3(2/5) stand for? a. the amount of hot dogs with sesame buns and ketchup. b. the amount of hot dogs with nothing on them. c. the amount of hot dogs were plain in a sesame bun. d. the amount of hot dogs sold with ketchup.

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to find out what 1/3 * 2/5 means is to consider what each number is associated with.

1/3 == sesame seed buns

2/5 == ketchup

So when you multiply the two fractions together you must be describing something that has to do with both of them and nothing more.

The answer must be A: it is the fractional amount of hot dogs sold that were sesame seed buns and ketchup.

The number of buns with nothing would be 1/10 which is not what you get.

The number with a sesame bun and plain has nothing to do with 1/3 * 2/5. You need 1/10 in there somewhere.

Ketchup is given as 2/5 The 1/3 has nothing to do with it.

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!

the answer to your question is c.)   volcanoes built the mountains and earthquakes tore them down.
