Question

Write the fraction represented by the shaded portion.

Answer 1

A fraction represents part (or parts) of a whole object or a group of objects.

Here, the given figure consists of $4$ shaded parts (i.e $4$ sectors of a circle) out of $7$ parts (full figure).

Hence, $4$ shaded parts out of $7$ parts in terms of fractions can be represented as $\frac{4}{7}$, where $4$ in the numerator stands for shaded parts and $7$ in the denominator stands for total number of parts (shaded and unshaded).

Therefore, shaded portion $=$$\frac{4}{7}$
