90 students audition for the school play 1/3 of those who auditioned were cast six in major roles. What fraction of those who are cast got major roles write your answer as a decimal.

Answer 1

To find the fraction of those who are cast that got major roles, we need to divide the number of students who got major roles by the total number of students who were cast.

The number of students who got major roles is 6, and the total number of students who were cast is 90 × 1/3 = 30.

So the fraction of those who are cast that got major roles is 6/30 = 1/5.

As a decimal, this fraction is 1/5 = 0.2. Answer: \boxed{0.2}.
