Answers:

In these exercices are ilustrated the representations of the fractions

2) Firstly, we have 3 equal segments, each one representing
(1)/(4), hence:


(3)/(4) is
3 copies of
(1)/(4)

Let's prove it, taking into account we are adding fractions with the same denominator:


(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)=(3)/(4)

There are 4 equal parts that make a whole

Four copies of
(1)/(4)
make
(4)/(4) or
1 whole


(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)=(4)/(4)=1

3) Here we have a line divided into four segments, each one of
(1)/(5). Hence:

This is
(4)/(5) of a line.
(4)/(5) is
4 lengths of
(1)/(5)


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

If we draw one more
(1)/(5) we will have
(5)/(5) or 1 whole.

Then:

5 lengths of
(1)/(5) make
(5)/(5) or
1 whole.

4) In this part the answer is in the attached image. If we have two equal segments, each one of
(1)/(3) we will have as a result
(2)/(3).

If we add another
(1)/(3) segment, we will have three segments of
(1)/(3), having as a result
(3)/(3)=1
