Question

$\text{Estimate what part of the figures is colored:}\text{i)}$


$\text{ii)}$

$\text{[3 marks]}$

Answer 1

$\text{i)}\text{Here, 3 parts out of 5 equal parts are shaded.}\text{In fraction, it is represented as}\frac{3}{5}\text{[0.5 mark]}$


$\text{In percentage, fraction}\frac{3}{5}\text{is represented as:}\Rightarrow \frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{5}\times 100\%=\frac{300}{5}\%=60\%\text{[1 mark]}\text{ii)}\text{Here, 3 parts out of 8 equal parts are shaded.}\text{In fraction, it is represented as}\frac{3}{8}\text{[0.5 mark]}$


$\text{In percentage, fraction}\frac{3}{8}\text{is represented as:}\Rightarrow \frac{3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}\times 100\%=\frac{300}{8}\%=37.5\%\text{[1 mark]}$
