Write the fraction shown in the picture, in words:
To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:
Initially, we examine the circle in the provided graphic, which is divided into three equal parts. Two of these parts are shaded.
Step 1: Count the sections. There are three sections in total, which means the denominator of the fraction is 3. Two of these sections are shaded, so the numerator is 2.
Step 2: Translate the numeric fraction into words.
The word representation of is "two thirds."
Thus, the answer to this problem is two thirds.
Two thirds
Write the fraction shown in the picture, in words:
Always count the shaded or highlighted parts for the numerator (top number). The denominator (bottom number) is the total number of equal parts in the whole circle.
For fractions to work correctly, the circle must be divided into equal parts. If parts are different sizes, you can't write it as a simple fraction like .
For , say "two thirds". The pattern is: [numerator number] + [denominator as ordinal]. Examples: = "one fourth", = "three fifths".
Because it is bigger! means 2 out of 3 parts, while means only 1 out of 3 parts. The shaded area shows this visually.
Then you'd have unshaded, but the question asks for the shaded fraction. Count the shaded parts: 2 shaded out of 3 total = .
