Answer:

¹/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rug = s²

Where s = 2 m

Area of the rug = 2² = 4 m²

Area of the rectangular carpet = length × width

Where,

Length = 12 m

Width = 5 m

Area = 12 × 5 = 60 m²

Fraction of the carpet covered by the rug = area of the rug ÷ area of the carpet = 4/60 = ¹/15
