The worksheet provided is designed to help students identify fractions using blocks. Each question shows a set of blocks, some of which are shaded, and the task is to write the fraction that represents the shaded portion.
Explanation of How to Solve:
1.
Identify the Total Number of Blocks: Count how many blocks there are in total.
2.
Identify the Shaded Blocks: Count how many blocks are shaded.
3.
Write the Fraction: The fraction is written as:
-
Numerator: The number of shaded blocks.
-
Denominator: The total number of blocks.
Solution for Each Question:
#### 1.
- Total blocks: 4
- Shaded blocks: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{4} \)
#### 2.
- Total blocks: 5
- Shaded blocks: 2
- Fraction: \( \frac{2}{5} \)
#### 3.
- Total blocks: 8
- Shaded blocks: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{8} \)
#### 4.
- Total blocks: 6
- Shaded blocks: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{6} \) (This can be simplified to \( \frac{2}{3} \), but typically, the unsimplified form is acceptable in such exercises.)
#### 5.
- Total blocks: 5
- Shaded blocks: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{5} \)
#### 6.
- Total blocks: 1
- Shaded blocks: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{1} \) or simply 1
#### 7.
- Total blocks: 7
- Shaded blocks: 2
- Fraction: \( \frac{2}{7} \)
#### 8.
- Total blocks: 4
- Shaded blocks: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{4} \)
#### 9.
- Total blocks: 6
- Shaded blocks: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{6} \)
#### 10.
- Total blocks: 3
- Shaded blocks: 2
- Fraction: \( \frac{2}{3} \)
#### 11.
- Total blocks: 10
- Shaded blocks: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{10} \) (This can be simplified to \( \frac{2}{5} \).)
#### 12.
- Total blocks: 6
- Shaded blocks: 5
- Fraction: \( \frac{5}{6} \)
#### 13.
- Total blocks: 8
- Shaded blocks: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{8} \)
#### 14.
- Total blocks: 7
- Shaded blocks: 5
- Fraction: \( \frac{5}{7} \)
#### 15.
- Total blocks: 4
- Shaded blocks: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{4} \)
#### 16.
- Total blocks: 9
- Shaded blocks: 6
- Fraction: \( \frac{6}{9} \) (This can be simplified to \( \frac{2}{3} \).)
#### 17.
- Total blocks: 5
- Shaded blocks: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{5} \)
#### 18.
- Total blocks: 8
- Shaded blocks: 5
- Fraction: \( \frac{5}{8} \)
