Study the following statements.
Statement-$1$: Fraction of shaded part of is $\frac{7}{16}$.
Statement-$2$: Fraction of shaded part of is $\frac{4}{9}$.
Which of the following options holds?

• A. Both Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$ are true
• B. Statement-$1$ is true but Statement-$2$ is false
• C. Statement-$1$ is false but Statement-$2$ is true
• D. Both Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$ are false

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$ are false

Statement 1 : Fraction of shaded part of is $\frac{7}{16}$

But in figure we can see uneven $7$ parts are shades.

$\therefore$ Statement 1 is false.

Statement 2 : Fraction of shaded part of is $\frac{4}{9}$.

But in figure we can see more than 4 and even parts are shaded.

$\therefore$ Statement 2 is false.

$\therefore$ Both statement -1 and Statement-2 are false.
