Fractions and proportion

Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers. The given question will be solved using the method of proportion.

If Uncle Bill has planted fruits in the farm and 7/12 is watermelon, and 2/3 of the watermelon section is ruined from the storm, the fraction ruined from the storm is;

Fraction ruined from the storm = 2/3* (7/12)
