Question

In which of the following figure does the shaded part represent two-fifth of its whole?

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Explanation for the correct option.

Two-fifth can be written as $\frac{2}{5}$, where $5$ as denominator represents total numbers of equal parts and $2$ as numerator represents parts to be shaded or needed.

Only option $\text{B}$ has $5$ equal parts in which $2$ parts are coloured.

Hence, option $\text{B}$, is correct.
