To find the total fraction of Paige's home that was painted last year, we need to multiply the fractions representing the rooms she initially decided to paint and the rooms she completed.
Fraction of rooms Paige decided to paint = 4/5
Fraction of those rooms she completed = 2/3
Total fraction painted = (4/5) * (2/3)
Total fraction painted = 8/15
Therefore, Paige painted 8/15 of her home last year.
Paige decided to paint 4/5
of the rooms in her home last year. By the end of the year, Paige completed 2/3
of those rooms. How much of Paige’s home was painted last year?
