Let’s work through the problems step by step.
---
Part A: Write each fraction in words.
We need to say the numerator (top number) as a regular number, and the denominator (bottom number) as an ordinal word (like “seventh”, “twelfth”, etc.), with a hyphen between them if it’s a compound word.
1)
5/7 → five-sevenths
2)
7/12 → seven-twelfths
3)
8/9 → eight-ninths
4)
2/3 → two-thirds
5)
6/11 → six-elevenths
6)
1/4 → one-fourth (or one-quarter — but “fourth” is standard for fractions)
7)
4/5 → four-fifths
8)
3/8 → three-eighths
✔ All done correctly.

Part B: Match the fractions to their word forms.
We match each fraction on the left to its correct name on the right.
1)
1/6 → one-sixth
2)
4/7 → four-sevenths
3)
2/10 → two-tenths
4)
7/9 → seven-ninths
So matching:
- 1) 1/6 → one-sixth
- 2) 4/7 → four-sevenths
- 3) 2/10 → two-tenths
- 4) 7/9 → seven-ninths
All matches are correct.
