For example:
\(\dfrac{1}{2}, \; \dfrac{2}{3}, \;\dfrac{5}{6}, \; \dfrac{1}{3}\) etc are fractions.
For example:
In fraction \(\dfrac{1}{2},\) \(1\) is the numerator of the fraction.
A \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)
B \(\dfrac{5}{3}\)
C \(\dfrac{1}{6}\)
D \(\dfrac{3}{5}\)
Here, \(1\)= numerator, represents number of parts we have, i.e., \(1\)
\(b\) = denominator, represents whole is divided into \(b\) equal parts
Finding their shares in fraction form.
Ronnie's share :
Total number of slices = \(8 \leftarrow\) denominator
Number of slices Ronnie ate \( = 3 \leftarrow\) numerator
\(\therefore\) Ronnie's share in fraction from = \(\dfrac{3}{8}\)
Robin's share :
Total number of slices \( = 8 \leftarrow\) denominator
Number of slices Robin ate \(= 5 \leftarrow \) numerator
\(\therefore\) Robin's share in fraction form \(= \dfrac {5}{8}\)
A \(\dfrac{4}{9}\)
B \(\dfrac{5}{9}\)
C \(\dfrac{1}{9}\)
D \(\dfrac{7}{9}\)
Here, \(1\)= numerator, represents number of parts we have, i.e., \(1\)
\(b\) = denominator, represents whole is divided into \(b\) equal parts
Finding their shares in fraction form,
Sara's share in cake:
Here, number of slices Sara ate \(= 1\)
Total number of slices \(= 4\)
\(\therefore\) Sara's share in fraction form \(=\dfrac{1}{4}\)
Ana's share in cake:
Here, number of slices Ana ate \( = 3\)
Total number of slices \( = 4\)
\(\therefore\) Ana's share in fraction form \( =\dfrac{3}{4}\)
For example:
In fraction \(\dfrac{1}{2}\), \(2 \) is the denominator.
A \(\dfrac{8}{2}\)
B \(\dfrac{1}{5}\)
C \(\dfrac{2}{7}\)
D \(\dfrac{9}{8}\)
Finding their shares in fraction form,
Tara's share in fraction form:
Tara has \(3\) muffins out of \(7\).
\(\therefore\) Fraction \(= \dfrac{3}{7}\)
Alia's share in fraction form:
Alia has \(4\) muffins out of \(7\).
\(\therefore\) Fraction \(= \dfrac{4}{7}\)
A \(\dfrac{6}{13}\)
B \(\dfrac{7}{6}\)
C \(\dfrac{6}{7}\)
D \(\dfrac{7}{13}\)
Finding their shares in fraction form,
Cherri's share of leaves in fraction form:
Here, Cherri takes \(5\) out of \(11\) leaves.
\(\therefore\) Cherri's share in fraction form = \(\dfrac{5}{11}\)
[As shown in figure]
Monica's share of leaves in fraction form:
Here, Monica takes \(6\) out of \(11\) leaves.
\(\therefore\) Monica's share in fraction from = \(\dfrac{6}{11}\)
