Answer 1

To determine the fraction of the students at Georgia Connections Academy (GACA) who participate in eSports, we can follow these steps:

1. **Find the fraction of students in a club**: Given that \( \frac{2}{5} \) of the students are in a club.

2. **Find the fraction of students in eSports**: From the club members, \( \frac{1}{4} \) participate in eSports.

To find the fraction of the total students who participate in eSports, we multiply these two fractions:

\[
\text{Fraction of students in eSports} = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right) \times \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)
\]

Calculating this,

\[
\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2 \times 1}{5 \times 4} = \frac{2}{20} = \frac{1}{10}
\]

Thus, the fraction of the students at GACA who participate in eSports is \( \frac{1}{10} \).

So the correct response is:

**1/10** (1 tenth).
