Let’s solve each part step by step.

Question 1: Counters
We have 5 counters total:
→ 3 green
→ 2 yellow
a. Fraction that are green = number of green / total =
3/5
b. Fraction that are yellow = number of yellow / total =
2/5
c. Complete the number sentence:
Green fraction + Yellow fraction = Whole
→ 3/5 + 2/5 =
5/5 (which equals 1 whole)
So:
3/5 + 2/5 = 5/5

Question 2: Tower of cubes
Tower has 4 cubes total:
→ 3 blue
→ 1 red
a. Fraction that is blue = 3/4
b. Fraction that is red = 1/4
c. Number sentence:
Blue + Red = Whole
→ 3/4 + 1/4 =
4/4 (which equals 1 whole)
So:
3/4 + 1/4 = 4/4

Question 3: Shaded shapes
Each rectangle is divided into 3 equal parts.
First shape: 1 out of 3 shaded →
1/3
Second shape: 2 out of 3 shaded →
2/3
Third shape: 3 out of 3 shaded →
3/3
And 3/3 = one whole.
So fill in:
Under first shape:
1/3
Under second shape:
2/3
Under third shape:
3/3
In the box next to “= one whole”:
3/3
