    Step-by-step explanation:

    The entire piece of land has an area of 5 ha.

    He uses 1.8 ha out of the 5 ha for planting.

    He grows corn in 5/6 of the 1.8 ha.

    5/6 of 1.8 ha is 5/6 * 1.8 ha = 1.5 ha.

    Now we need to know what percent 1.5 ha is of 5 ha.

    To find what percent a part is of the whole, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100.

    percent = 1.5/5 * 100% = 0.3 * 100% = 30%

    Answer: 30%
