Based on the analysis of each problem on the worksheet, here is the solution for coloring each shape to represent its corresponding fraction:
-
Problem b ($\frac{4}{6}$): The rectangle is divided into 6 vertical strips. You need to color
4 of these strips.
-
Problem c ($\frac{2}{6}$): The hexagon is divided into 6 triangular sections. You need to color
2 of these triangles.
-
Problem d ($\frac{3}{5}$): The star is divided into 5 triangular sections. You need to color
3 of these triangles.
-
Problem e ($\frac{5}{12}$): The circle is divided into 12 equal slices. You need to color
5 of these slices.
-
Problem f ($\frac{10}{18}$): The rectangle is divided into a grid of 18 smaller squares (3 rows x 6 columns). You need to color
10 of these squares.
-
Problem g ($\frac{4}{12}$): The rectangle is divided into 12 smaller rectangles (6 rows x 2 columns). You need to color
4 of these smaller rectangles.
-
Problem h ($\frac{1}{6}$): The hexagon is divided into 6 triangular sections. You need to color
1 of these triangles.
-
Problem i ($\frac{14}{30}$): The rectangle is divided into a grid of 30 smaller squares (5 rows x 6 columns). You need to color
14 of these squares.
-
Problem j ($\frac{1}{4}$): The circle is divided into 4 equal quadrants. You need to color
1 of these quadrants.
-
Problem k ($\frac{5}{6}$): The rectangle is divided into 6 horizontal strips. You need to color
5 of these strips.
-
Problem l ($\frac{5}{8}$): The diamond (rhombus) is divided into 8 triangular sections. You need to color
5 of these triangles.
In summary, for each problem, you count the total number of equal sections in the shape (which matches the denominator of the fraction) and then color the number of sections indicated by the numerator.
