Question

Which of the following circles does not represent equivalent fractions?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Fraction of shaded parts in the first circle $=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{4÷4}{12÷4}=\frac{1}{3}$


Fraction of shaded parts in the second circle $=\frac{4}{9}$


Fraction of shaded parts in the third circle $=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{2÷2}{6÷2}=\frac{1}{3}$


Fraction of shaded parts in fourth circle $=\frac{1}{3}$
Hence, all fractions are equivalent to $\frac{1}{3}$ except the second one.
