Solution

The correct option is A Pie chart A
$A third of a fourth = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1 \times 1}{3 \times 4} = \frac{1}{12}$

$Examining the given pie charts, we find:$

$P i e C h a r t A :$

$\frac{N u m b e r o f s h a d e d p a r t s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f p a r t s} = \frac{1}{12}$

$P i e C h a r t B :$

$\frac{N u m b e r o f s h a d e d p a r t s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f p a r t s} = \frac{3}{12}$

$P i e C h a r t C :$

$\frac{N u m b e r o f s h a d e d p a r t s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f p a r t s} = \frac{5}{12}$

$P i e C h a r t D :$

$\frac{N u m b e r o f s h a d e d p a r t s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f p a r t s} = \frac{5}{12}$

$∴ Pie chart A correctly represents$ $the given statement.$
