The portion of the circle shaded blue is 3/4. Option A

Since three sides of the circle are shaded blue, we can calculate the portion of the circle that is shaded blue by considering the ratio of the blue-shaded region to the entire circle.

Then, we have that to determine the fraction of the entire circle, we use the ratio of the blue-shaded portion to the total:

Total sides = 4

The blue -shaded part = 3

Then, we have that;

= 3/4 is the portion
