Question

Select the correct representation of fraction of the pastries.

• A. $\frac{1}{2}$ of 14
• B. $\frac{1}{2}$ of 6
• C. $\frac{1}{2}$ of 12
• D. $\frac{1}{3}$ of 12

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{1}{2}$ of 12

Total pastries = 12
They are divided into 2 parts.
Number of pastries in each part = 6.
Thus, the representation of these pastries is half of 12 or $\frac{1}{2}$ of 12.
