Question

What is the fraction represented by the unshaded region?

• A. $\frac{1}{8}$
• B. $\frac{7}{8}$
• C. $\frac{5}{8}$
• D. $\frac{3}{8}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{7}{8}$

There are total $8$ parts out of which only $1$ is shaded.

The fraction represented by the shaded portion
is $\frac{1}{8}$.
So unshaded portion will be $1-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{(8-1)}{8}$=$\frac{7}{8}$.
