Question

1.Label the shaded fraction. Draw 2 different representations of the same fractional amount. 2. These two shapes both show 4/5. a. Are the shapes equivalent? why or why not? b. Draw two different representations of 4/5 that are equivalent. 3. Diana ran a quarter mile straight down the street. Becky ran a quarter mile on a track. Who ran more? Explain your thinking. Diana __________. Becky ⚪

Answer 1

1. 3/7 2. a)Yes b) Check the picture below 3. None

Explanation:

1. Check the picture below.

2.)

a) Despite the shapes are different, 4/5 of each shape (Or 80% of the shape is shaded). So they are equivalent in relative terms.

b)

3) A quarter mile whether down the street or in a track is still
`(1)/(4)`mile. Because distance is measure from point A to another given point B, in line.

Further, to calculate the distance of that elliptical track we would to "cut" the ellipse pull it as a string and then calculate it.

We could discuss the speed of Becky, the time spent by Diana and Becky, and other subjects.
