Answer:

40 tarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Lindsey had 400 tarts to start with, then she sold off 3/5 of them. Hence find the number of tarts left (2/5 of the original amount). Then she sold 1/4 of the remaining tarts. Therefore, find 1/4 or 2/5 of 400. The equation would be;

[tex](\frac{1}{4})(\frac{2}{5})(400)[/tex]

Now one just has to solve the equation;

[tex]\frac{1}{10}(400)[/tex]

40
She sold 60 tarts in the after noon.
