Step-by-step solution for: 2nd Grade Fractions Worksheets & Free Printables
Let me carefully examine the image to understand the task.
The worksheet is titled "FRACTION PRACTICE" and says: "Write the fraction the shaded parts of each shape represent."
There are several shapes with some parts shaded, and blanks below them where fractions should be written. The first one is already filled in as 2/5 — it's a rectangle divided into 5 equal vertical strips, with 2 of them shaded purple.
I need to determine the fraction for each remaining shape by counting:
- Total number of equal parts (denominator)
- Number of shaded parts (numerator)
Let me go through each shape systematically.
First row (after the example):
1. A green hexagon divided into 6 equal triangles, 2 shaded → 2/6 = 1/3
2. A circle divided into 3 equal sectors, 1 shaded red → 1/3
3. A square divided into 4 equal triangles, 1 shaded yellow → 1/4
4. A triangle divided into 4 equal smaller triangles, 1 shaded blue → 1/4
Second row:
5. A circle divided into 8 equal sectors, 3 shaded orange → 3/8
6. A square divided into 4 equal squares, 3 shaded red → 3/4
7. A diamond (square rotated) divided into 4 equal triangles, 2 shaded green → 2/4 = 1/2
8. A rectangle divided into 4 equal horizontal strips, 2 shaded purple → 2/4 = 1/2
9. A hexagon divided into 6 equal triangles, 2 shaded green → 2/6 = 1/3
Third section: "Draw a line between the matching fractions."
There are two rows of shapes; I need to match equivalent fractions.
Top row shapes:
- Triangle split into 4 parts, 1 shaded orange → 1/4
- Diamond split into 4 triangles, 2 shaded green → 2/4 = 1/2
- Rectangle split into 3 parts, 2 shaded blue → 2/3
- Circle split into 8 parts, 3 shaded green → 3/8
- Hexagon split into 6 parts, 3 shaded red → 3/6 = 1/2
Bottom row shapes:
- Rectangle split into 5 parts, 2 shaded green → 2/5 (already given as example)
- Circle split into 3 parts, 1 shaded red → 1/3
- Rectangle split into 5 parts, 3 shaded purple → 3/5
- Hexagon split into 6 parts, 2 shaded green → 2/6 = 1/3
- Rectangle split into 4 parts, 2 shaded pink → 2/4 = 1/2
Wait — but the instruction says "Draw a line between the matching fractions", implying we need to pair shapes with equal values.
Let me list all fractions represented:
Top row:
1. Triangle: 4 parts, 1 shaded → 1/4
2. Diamond: 4 triangles, 2 shaded → 2/4 = 1/2
3. Rectangle: 3 parts, 2 shaded → 2/3
4. Circle: 8 parts, 3 shaded → 3/8
5. Hexagon: 6 parts, 3 shaded → 3/6 = 1/2
Bottom row:
6. Rectangle: 5 parts, 2 shaded → 2/5
7. Circle: 3 parts, 1 shaded → 1/3
8. Rectangle: 5 parts, 3 shaded → 3/5
9. Hexagon: 6 parts, 2 shaded → 2/6 = 1/3
10. Rectangle: 4 parts, 2 shaded → 2/4 = 1/2
So matching pairs:
- Diamond (2/4) ↔ Hexagon (3/6) ↔ Rectangle (2/4) → all = 1/2
But there are three 1/2s — maybe only two are to be matched? Or perhaps the worksheet expects only direct matches.
Wait — looking again, the bottom row has 5 shapes, top row has 5 shapes. Likely intended matches:
- 1/4 (triangle) — no other 1/4? Actually, none in bottom row.
- 1/2 appears 3 times: diamond, hexagon (3/6), and last rectangle (2/4)
- 1/3 appears twice: circle (1/3) and hexagon (2/6)
- 2/3, 3/8, 2/5, 3/5 have no matches.
But the problem likely expects us to fill in the blanks first, then match equivalent fractions.
However, the user’s instruction is: “Solve the problem accurately.” And options are all false, so only Final Answer is required.
Given that, and since the main task is to "Write the fraction the shaded parts of each shape represent", and there are 9 blanks (first row 4 blanks after example, second row 5 blanks), I need to provide those 9 fractions.
Let me re-count the blanks:
Image shows:
- Row 1: 5 shapes total; first is done (2/5), next 4 blanks → 4 answers
- Row 2: 5 shapes, all blanks → 5 answers
Total 9 fractions to write.
Let me carefully identify each:
Shape 1 (already given): rectangle, 5 parts, 2 shaded → 2/5 ✔
Row 1, shape 2: regular hexagon divided into 6 equilateral triangles, 2 shaded green → 2/6 = 1/3
But usually we simplify unless instructed otherwise. The example 2/5 is not simplified further (it’s already simplified), so we should simplify where possible.
Standard practice in such worksheets: simplify fractions.
So:
- 2/6 → 1/3
- 2/4 → 1/2
- 3/6 → 1/2
- 2/6 again → 1/3
etc.
Now let’s list all 9 blanks in order (left to right, top to bottom):
1. Hexagon (6 triangles, 2 green) → 2/6 = 1/3
2. Circle (3 sectors, 1 red) → 1/3
3. Square (4 triangles, 1 yellow) → 1/4
4. Triangle (4 small triangles, 1 blue) → 1/4
5. Circle (8 sectors, 3 orange) → 3/8
6. Square (4 squares, 3 red) → 3/4
7. Diamond (4 triangles, 2 green) → 2/4 = 1/2
8. Rectangle (4 horizontal strips, 2 purple) → 2/4 = 1/2
9. Hexagon (6 triangles, 2 green) → 2/6 = 1/3
Wait — but shapes 1 and 9 both give 1/3, and shape 2 is also 1/3 — that’s three 1/3s. Is that correct?
Let me double-check shape 2: circle divided into 3 equal parts (like a peace sign), one part red → yes, 1/3.
Shape 1: hexagon split from center to vertices → 6 triangles, 2 shaded → 2/6 = 1/3.
Shape 9: same hexagon type, 2 shaded → 1/3.
That’s fine — multiple shapes can represent same fraction.
Now, for the matching part — but since the instruction is just to “write the fraction”, and the matching is a separate instruction (“Draw a line…”), and the user only wants the final answer (with ExplainAnswer=false), I think the expected output is the 9 fractions in order.
But what format? Probably as a list.
Looking at worksheet layout: blanks are under each shape, so answer should be the 9 fractions.
Let me confirm using zoom if needed — but since I can’t actually zoom without tool, and my description seems consistent, I’ll proceed.
Final 9 fractions:
1. 1/3
2. 1/3
3. 1/4
4. 1/4
5. 3/8
6. 3/4
7. 1/2
8. 1/2
9. 1/3
But wait — shape 6: square divided into 4 smaller squares, 3 shaded red → yes, 3/4.
Shape 5: circle with 8 slices, 3 orange → 3/8.
Yes.
However, sometimes worksheets keep unsimplified forms (e.g., 2/6 instead of 1/3) to emphasize counting. But the given example is 2/5, which is simplified. Also, in elementary practice, simplification is usually expected.
To be safe, let me check common standards: In most K-5 fraction shading worksheets, they expect simplified fractions unless stated otherwise.
I will go with simplified forms.
Thus, the 9 answers are:
1/3, 1/3, 1/4, 1/4, 3/8, 3/4, 1/2, 1/2, 1/3
But the problem may expect them in the order of the blanks — and there are exactly 9 blanks.
Final Answer should be these 9 fractions.
Since the response format requires only "Final Answer:" with the answer, I’ll list them separated by commas.
Wait — maybe as a single string? But clarity is key.
I think:
Final Answer: 1/3, 1/3, 1/4, 1/4, 3/8, 3/4, 1/2, 1/2, 1/3
But let me make sure about shape 4: large triangle divided into 4 congruent small triangles (by connecting midpoints), 1 shaded blue → yes, 1/4.
Shape 3: square divided by diagonals into 4 triangles, 1 yellow → 1/4.
All good.
I’ll provide that.
However, the user uploaded an image, and I must be 100% accurate. Since I can’t verify pixel-perfect, but based on standard interpretation, this is correct.
One more check: In second row, fourth shape — rectangle divided into 4 horizontal strips, 2 shaded purple → 2/4 = 1/2 ✔️
Fifth shape: hexagon, 6 triangles, 2 green = 1/3 ✔️
Yes.
Final Answer:
1/3, 1/3, 1/4, 1/4, 3/8, 3/4, 1/2, 1/2, 1/3
