1/5x=18 1/5×x/1=18 X/5=18 X=18×5 X=90  90-(18+20)= 90-38= 52 other plants

Answer:

There are 52 other plants are in the garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of grape tomato plants in garden = 18

Number of cheery tomato plants in garden = 20

Number of other plants = x

Total plants in the garden = P

Fraction of grape tomato in garden= [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{5}P=18[/tex]

P = 90

P = 90 = 18 + 20 +x

x = 52

There are 52 other plants are in the garden.
