Question

Match the following figures with the fractions represented by the shaded portion.

• A. $\frac{4}{9}$
• B. $\frac{2}{9}$
• C. $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer 1

In figure 1, we can see that 4 parts out of 9 are shaded. So, it represents $\frac{4}{9}$.

In figure 2, we can see that 2 parts out of 9 are shaded. So, it represents $\frac{2}{9}$.

In figure 3, we can see that 6 parts out of 8 are shaded. So, it represents $\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}$.
