Answer:
\(\frac{1}{35}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem we have to multiply the fractions, because it says that \(\frac{3}{28}\) of the animals are birds, and from that fraction \(\frac{4}{15}\) are birds of prey. In other words, \(\frac{4}{15}\) of \(\frac{3}{28}\) are birds of the prey. One strategy to solve this quickly is remembering that "of" is translated into math language as multiplication, so:
\(\frac{3}{28} \frac{4}{15} = \frac{12}{420} =\frac{1}{35}\)
Therefore, \(\frac{1}{35}\) of the total birds, are birds of the prey.
