Answer key · Set C
Fractions made of many parts
13/8 The square has 8 equal parts and 3 are shaded: 3/8.
22/6 The circle has 6 equal parts and 4 are shaded. The other 2 are not: 2/6, the same as 1/3.
3A 5/8 means 8 equal parts with 5 shaded. B has 3 shaded and C has only 6 parts.
45/4 4 fourths in the first bar and 1 fourth in the second. 4 + 1 = 5 fourths: 5/4.
54/3 3 thirds in the first circle and 1 third in the second. 3 + 1 = 4 thirds: 4/3.
65/8 3 + 2 = 5 slices of the 8 equal slices: 5/8.
7False The top number counts the parts you take (3) and the bottom number counts all the equal parts (8). The fraction is 3/8.
84 The bar has 6 equal parts and 2 are shaded. 6 - 2 = 4.
9C Half of 8 parts is 4. Only bar C has more than 4 parts shaded.
101, 3, 2, 4 The bottom number is the same, so the bigger the top number, the bigger the fraction.
