Let's solve the "Fraction Shapes" worksheet step by step. The goal is to write the fraction that represents the shaded area of each shape.

We will go through each shape one by one and determine:

- How many equal parts the shape is divided into (the denominator).
- How many of those parts are shaded (the numerator).
