Question

A) There are 3 silver bikes and 1 green bike

What fraction are the silver bycicles? Answer in simplest form.

B) How many sections on a pie chart would you shade to show that are silver?
​

Answer 1

a)
`(3)/(4)`

b) 3 quadrants/sections

Explanation:

we are given 3 silver bikes and 1 green bike for a total of 4 bikes. so, the number of green bikes as a fraction of total bikes is
`(3)/(4)`.

next, we can represent the data as a pie chart. a pie chart is a circle. it has 4 quadrants/sections. if we want to shade
`(3)/(4)` of the pie chart, we will take 3 of 4 quadrants.
