Answer 1

A. Because one fifth of the kids had blue eyes out of the 30 kids

Answer 2

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A is the only correct answer. If the number 15 were involved in the multiplication the fraction would be 1/2, or the number 15 would be used. Because 15 is not 1/5th of 30, the only answer would be A, which is the only one that uses that fraction.
