As one fraction, the model is: 39/10

As a mixed number, the fraction is: 3⁹/₁₀

How to solve the fraction model?

There are different types of fraction such as:

Proper Fraction

Improper Fraction

Mixed Fraction

Now, since one circle represents one unit. Then since we have 3 fully shaded circle, that is 3 whole number.

The last circle has one unshaded part. Thus, it represents the fraction: 9/10

Thus, as one fraction, the model is:

39/10

As a mixed number, the fraction is:

3⁹/₁₀
