Question

What fraction of figure is shaded and what is the difference between unshaded and shaded fraction?

• A. $\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{2}$
• B. $\frac{3}{4},\frac{1}{2}$
• C. $\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2}$
• D. $\frac{2}{9},\frac{1}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{2}$

Fraction of shaded parts $=\frac{1}{4}$

Fraction of non-shaded parts $=1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$

Difference between non-shaded and shaded parts $=\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{4}$

$=\frac{2}{4}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$

$\therefore$ Required answers are $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$.
