Answer: 15/32

Step-by-step explanation:

The data that we have is:

5/8 of the vegetable sold where green.

of theses 5/8, 3/4 were string beans.

Then the 3/4 is applied to the 5/8 of green vegetables.

Then the fraction (of the total number of vegetables) that were string beans was:

F  = (3/4)*(5/8) = (3*5)/(4*8) = 15/32
