Question

Write these fractions appropriately as additions or subtractions:

Answer 1

Here, it can be observed that $1st,2nd$, and $3rd$ rectangles are representing $2,3$, and $5$ shaded parts out of $6$ equal parts respectively.

Clearly, the fraction represented by $3rd$ rectangle is the sum of the fractions represented by $1st$ and $2nd$ rectangles.

Hence, $\frac{2}{6}+\frac{3}{6}=\frac{5}{6}$.
