Question

Write the fractions and pair up the equivalent fractions from each row.

Answer 1

(a) Here, 1 part is shaded out of 2 equal parts (i.e., rectangle). Hence, this

figure represents a fraction.

(b) Here, 4 parts are shaded out of 6 equal parts (i.e., rectangle). Hence,

this figure represents a fraction

(c) Here, 3 parts are shaded out of 9 equal parts (i.e., squares). Hence, this

figure represents a fraction

(d) Here, 2 parts are shaded out of 8 equal parts (i.e., rectangle). Hence,

this figure represents a fraction

(e) Here, 3 parts are shaded out of 4 equal parts (i.e., squares). Hence, this

figure represents a fraction .

(i) Here, 6 parts are shaded out of 18 equal parts (i.e., triangles). Hence, this figure represents a fraction

(ii) Here, 4 parts are shaded out of 8 equal parts (i.e., rectangles). Hence, this figure represents a fraction

(iii) Here, 12 parts are shaded out of 16 equal parts (i.e., squares). Hence, this figure represents a fraction

(iv) Here, 8 parts are shaded out of 12 equal parts (i.e., rectangles). Hence, this figure represents a fraction

(v) Here, 4 parts are shaded out of 16 equal parts (i.e., triangles). Hence, this figure represents a fraction

Now, these figures can be matched correctly as

(a) (ii), (b) (iv), (c) (i), (d) (v), (e) (iii)
