Explanation:
Okay.... so here's how we do it!
Simply count the total number of parts (parts of the shape).
Then, count the number of parts that are shaded.
I'll do the first two for you.
1. There are 4 total parts, and 3 parts are shaded.
So, the fraction of parts that are shaded is 3/4.
2. There are 8 parts total, and there are 5 parts shaded.
So, the fraction is 5/8!
