Question

Select the equation represented by the fraction strips below.

Answer 1

[B] 5/4 + 2/4 = 7/4

Explanation:

As we can see based on the image represented given;

It states:

⇒ Four 1/4 = 1 Whole

⇒ There are 5/4 Already(1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 5/4)

⇒ Arrow that shows that it adding 2/4 Due to 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4

Based on the given;

The equation that represented by the fraction strips is:

5/4 + 2/4 = 7/4

Hence, the answer is [B] 5/4 + 2/4 = 7/4

B.

What is a fraction?

A fraction is a fragment of a whole number, used to define parts of a whole. The whole can be a whole object, or many different objects. The number at the top of the line is called the numerator, whereas the bottom is called the denominator.

Looking at the picture, we can see that the fraction strip consists of 5
`(1)/(4)` fractions, and we add on 2 more. To find the value of the fractions together, we can use this equation:

• 
  `(1)/(4) +(1)/(4) +(1)/(4) +(1)/(4) +(1)/(4) = (5)/(4)`

• 
  `(1)/(4) +(1)/(4) =(2)/(4)`

Now, we can make an equation that best represents the question.

• 
  `(5)/(4) +(2)/(4) =(7)/(4)`

Therefore, the answer is B.
