Tyler's Family rented 15 DVDs last month. Of the 15 DVDs, 1/5 were documentaries. How many of the movies were documentarise?
1 answer
To find the number of documentaries, you need to multiply the total number of DVDs rented by the fraction that represents the portion that were documentaries: 15 DVDs * 1/5 documentaries/DVD = <<15*1/5=3>>3 documentaries. Answer: \boxed{3}.
