Step-by-step solution for: Fractions Worksheets | Printable Fractions Worksheets for Teachers
Problem Overview:
The worksheet consists of two main sections:
1. Identifying the Fraction of the Shaded Area: Determine the fraction that represents the shaded portion of each given figure.
2. Shading the Figure with the Indicated Fraction: Shade the given figures according to the specified fractions.
Let's solve each section step by step.

Section 1: What is the Fraction of the Shaded Area?
#### Step-by-Step Analysis:
1. Figure 1:
- Total rectangles: 5
- Shaded rectangles: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{5} \)
2. Figure 2:
- Total rectangles: 3
- Shaded rectangles: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{3} \)
3. Figure 3:
- Total rectangles: 5
- Shaded rectangles: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{5} \)
4. Figure 4:
- Total sectors in the circle: 4
- Shaded sectors: 2
- Fraction: \( \frac{2}{4} \) or simplified to \( \frac{1}{2} \)
5. Figure 5:
- Total sectors in the circle: 8
- Shaded sectors: 3
- Fraction: \( \frac{3}{8} \)
6. Figure 6:
- Total sectors in the hexagon: 8
- Shaded sectors: 1
- Fraction: \( \frac{1}{8} \)
7. Figure 7:
- Total rectangles: 5
- Shaded rectangles: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{5} \)
8. Figure 8:
- Total sectors in the circle: 8
- Shaded sectors: 4
- Fraction: \( \frac{4}{8} \) or simplified to \( \frac{1}{2} \)
9. Figure 9:
- Total rectangles: 7
- Shaded rectangles: 6
- Fraction: \( \frac{6}{7} \)
10. Figure 10:
- Total triangles in the pentagon: 5
- Shaded triangles: 2
- Fraction: \( \frac{2}{5} \)
#### Final Answers for Section 1:
\[
\begin{aligned}
1) & \quad \frac{3}{5} \\
2) & \quad \frac{1}{3} \\

Section 2: Shade the Figure with the Indicated Fraction
#### Step-by-Step Instructions:
11. Figure 11: \( \frac{1}{4} \)
- The circle is divided into 4 equal parts.
- Shade 1 part.
12. Figure 12: \( \frac{6}{8} \)
- The octagon is divided into 8 equal parts.
- Shade 6 parts.
13. Figure 13: \( \frac{1}{6} \)
- The row has 6 rectangles.
- Shade 1 rectangle.
14. Figure 14: \( \frac{3}{4} \)
- The circle is divided into 4 equal parts.
- Shade 3 parts.
15. Figure 15: \( \frac{2}{4} \)
- The square is divided into 4 equal parts.
- Shade 2 parts.
16. Figure 16: \( \frac{2}{6} \)
- The circle is divided into 6 equal parts.
- Shade 2 parts.
17. Figure 17: \( \frac{2}{5} \)
- The pentagon is divided into 5 equal parts.
- Shade 2 parts.
18. Figure 18: \( \frac{4}{8} \)
- The row has 8 rectangles.
- Shade 4 rectangles.
19. Figure 19: \( \frac{3}{8} \)
- The circle is divided into 8 equal parts.
- Shade 3 parts.
20. Figure 20: \( \frac{1}{5} \)
- The pentagon is divided into 5 equal parts.
- Shade 1 part.
#### Instructions for Shading:
- For each figure, divide it into the appropriate number of equal parts based on the denominator of the fraction.
- Shade the number of parts indicated by the numerator of the fraction.
