Step-by-step explanation:

Given : At West High School, 2/ 5 of the students play a sport.

Of the students who play a sport, 1 /4 play football.

To Find: What fraction of the students at West High School play football?

Of the students who play a sport, $\frac{1}{4}$ play football.

Now the fraction of the students at West High School play football = $\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{5}$

= $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{5}$

= $\frac{1}{10}$

Thus Option A is correct.
