Write the fraction shown in the picture, in words:
To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:
Steps in detail:
Step 1: The diagram shows a circle divided into eight equal parts. This step lets us determine the denominator, which is eight.
Step 2: The circle has four parts marked as shaded. This provides the numerator of the fraction, which is four.
Step 3: Therefore, the fraction can be written by combining these numbers. The numerator (shaded parts) is four, and the denominator (total sections) is eight.
Step 4: In words, we express the fraction as "four eighths." This corresponds with option 3 in the choices given.
In conclusion, the fraction in the picture represented in words is four eighths.
Four eighths
Write the fraction shown in the picture, in words:
The numerator (top) is always the shaded or selected parts - what you have. The denominator (bottom) is the total equal parts the whole is divided into.
In fraction problems, we assume all parts are equal unless stated otherwise. Count each section as one part, regardless of how it appears visually in the drawing.
Say the numerator as a regular number (four), then add the denominator with an 's' if numerator is more than 1. So becomes "four eighths".
The question asks for the fraction shown in the picture, so write exactly what you see: as "four eighths", not the simplified version.
Use "eighth" only when the numerator is 1 (like = "one eighth"). For any other numerator, add 's' to make it plural: "four eighths".
