The image shows three diagrams that help explain how fractions relate to a whole, using time (a clock) and shapes (circles).
Let’s break it down:
1.
Left diagram – Clock with hour and minute hands
- The red arrows point to “hour hand” and “minute hand”.
- This is just showing what the parts of a clock are called — not directly part of the fraction problem, but maybe used as context for time-related fractions later.
2.
Middle diagram – Pink circle split in half
- It’s divided into 2 equal parts.
- Each part is labeled
½.
- So, ½ + ½ = 1 whole circle. ✔️ Correct.
3.
Right diagram – Blue circle split into 4 equal parts
- Divided into 4 equal sections.
- Each section is labeled
¼.
- So, ¼ + ¼ + ¼ + ¼ = 1 whole circle. ✔️ Also correct.
This seems to be teaching that:
- A whole can be split into equal parts.
- When you add all the parts together, they make 1 whole.
- Fractions like ½ and ¼ represent those equal parts.
There’s no actual question asked in the image — it looks like an illustration or learning aid. But since you’re asking me to “solve the problem,” I assume the implied task is to verify whether the fractions shown correctly add up to 1 whole.
✔ Verification:
For pink circle:
½ + ½ = 2/2 = 1 → Correct.
For blue circle:
¼ + ¼ + ¼ + ¼ = 4/4 = 1 → Correct.
So both diagrams correctly show how fractional parts combine to make one whole.
Final Answer:
Both circles correctly show that their fractional parts add up to 1 whole: ½ + ½ = 1 and ¼ + ¼ + ¼ + ¼ = 1.
