    C)  \[\frac{1}{8}\]

    D)  \[\frac{1}{5}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Let whole garden be denoted by x. Fraction of garden having tomatoes \[=\frac{x}{2}\] \[\therefore \] Remaining fraction of garden \[=x-\frac{x}{2}=\frac{x}{2}\] Fraction of garden having spinach \[=\frac{1}{4}\left( \frac{x}{2} \right)=\frac{x}{8}=\frac{1}{8}(x)\]
