Question

Which of the following models represents the given equation:

$\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{5}=P$

• A. Model A
• B. Model B
• C. Model C
• D. Model D

Answer 1

The correct option is A Model A

$\text{The product}P\text{can be calculated as:}$


$\text{Total parts}=15\text{Total area}=1\times 1=1\text{sq.unit}\text{Area of each section}=\frac{1}{15}\text{sq. unit}\text{Area of overlapping section}=\frac{1}{15}\times 1=\frac{1}{15}\text{sq. unit}$

$\therefore \frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{15}$

$\text{Comparing the final model with the}\text{given models, we find that the model that}\text{represents the given equation is,}modelA.$
