To solve the problem, we need to match each figure with the correct fraction. Let's analyze each figure step by step:
Example:
- The figure is divided into 3 equal parts, and 1 part is shaded.
- This represents
one-third.
Figure (a):
- The rectangle is divided into 3 equal vertical strips, and 1 strip is shaded.
- This represents
one-third.
Figure (b):
- The hexagon is divided into 6 equal triangular sections, and 2 sections are shaded.
- Since 2 out of 6 sections are shaded, this represents
one-third (because \( \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3} \)).
Figure (c):
- The circle is divided into 4 equal quadrants, and 1 quadrant is shaded.
- This represents
one-quarter.
Figure (d):
- The rectangle is divided into 4 equal smaller rectangles, and 1 smaller rectangle is shaded.
- This represents
one-quarter.
Figure (e):
- The pentagon is divided into 5 equal triangular sections, and 1 section is shaded.
- This represents
one-fifth.
Matching the Figures with Fractions:
1.
Figure (a): One-third
2.
Figure (b): One-third
3.
Figure (c): One-quarter
4.
Figure (d): One-quarter
5.
Figure (e): One-fifth
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
\text{a) } & \text{one-third} \\
\text{b) } & \text{one-third} \\
\text{c) } & \text{one-quarter} \\
\text{d) } & \text{one-quarter} \\
\text{e) } & \text{one-fifth} \\
\end{array}
}
\]
