Property tax and Utilities for Garden Nursery Business

Hello,

 

We run a Garden Nursery business out of our backyard.  The greenhouse is a separate structure on our primary residence.  My understanding is that I can deduct a portion of the property tax and utilities that used for the business.

 

Regarding property tax.  Let's say my total property tax for 2023 was $10,000.  if I use 1/5 of the land for Nursery etc, I'm assuming I can use $2000 as a business deduction.  But do I only enter in $8000 for the property tax paid when it comes to the section where i enter in property tax for our primary residence?

 

thx, duc
