Question

Identify the figure which represent equal parts?

• A. 2 and 3
• B. 1 and 2
• C. 1 and 3
• D. 2 and 4

Answer 1

The correct option is C 1 and 3

In the given first circular object, there are a total of $4$ parts and $1$ part is shaded amongst them. Therefore, the ratio of shaded part to the total number of parts is:

$\frac{Shaded}{Total}=\frac{1}{4}$

Now, consider the second circular object, there are a total of $4$ parts and $2$ parts are shaded amongst them. Therefore, the ratio of shaded parts to the total number of parts is:

$\frac{Shaded}{Total}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Now, in the third object, there are a total of $4$ squares and $3$ squares are shaded amongst them. Therefore, the ratio of shaded squares to the total number of squares is:

$\frac{Shaded}{Total}=\frac{1}{4}$

Finally, in the last object, there are a total of $4$ squares and none of the squares are shaded amongst them. Therefore, the ratio of shaded squares to the total number of squares is:

$\frac{Shaded}{Total}=\frac{0}{4}=0$

Since the fraction of all of first and third objects is same that is $\frac{1}{4}$.

Hence, the figure 1 and 3 represents the equal parts.
