Question

What fraction does each part represent? Drag the tiles to make a fraction that represents each part of Alexi's circle. 1 2 5 6 8 ​

Answer 1

To represent each part of Alexi's circle as a fraction, we need to determine the total number of parts in the circle and the number of parts represented by each tile.

Adding up the number of tiles, we get:

1 + 2 + 5 + 6 + 8 = 22

So there are a total of 22 parts in Alexi's circle.

To find the fraction represented by each tile, we can divide the number of parts represented by the tile by the total number of parts in the circle.

Starting with the first tile, which represents 1 part, the fraction it represents is:

1/22

Moving to the second tile, which represents 2 parts, the fraction it represents is:

2/22 = 1/11

Continuing in the same way for the remaining tiles, we get:

• The tile representing 5 parts represents the fraction 5/22
• The tile representing 6 parts represents the fraction 6/22, which simplifies to 3/11
• The tile representing 8 parts represents the fraction 8/22, which simplifies to 4/11

So the fractions represented by each part of Alexi's circle are

• 1/22
• 1/11
• 5/22
• 3/11
• 4/11
