There are 8 ducks swimming in a pond. If 6 have green wings and 2 have blue wings, what fraction of the ducks have blue wings?

The entirety of 8 ducks as a fraction is 8/8.

So 2 ducks have blue wings which means that represents a quarter (25%) of the total ducks.

A quarter as fraction is 1/4.

Ex to understand de logic:

1/1 is a full (100%)
1/2 is a half (50%)
1/4 is a quarter (25%)

In our case 8/8 equals with 1/1 (100% of the ducks).
