In art class, arthur has created a triangle painting 1/5 of his painting is purple. he decided he wants to paint 4/8 of the purple area gold what fraction of the whole painting will be painting

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the area of the triangle be x

Arthur is painting 1/5 of the area of the triangle purple

Purple area = 1/5 × x = x/5

He decided he wants to paint 4/8 of the purple area gold

Gold area = 4/8 ×x/5= 4x/40 = x/10

Remaining area left apart from the gold = x - x/10

=9x/10

Gold area/ area of full triangle

= x/10 ÷ 10 = 1/10
