Answer:

It's b

Explanation:

It is out of 8. Each circle has 8 sections. A full section would be 8/8 which is = to 1/1. This is because 8 divided by 8 is 1. In the second circle, three out of the 8 are shaded. This would make it 3/8. The / works as "out of". So 3 out of 8. Thus B. is 1 and 3/8

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

As you can see one full circle is shaded in. This accounts for the whole number, 1, that we need. In the second image you can see a circle with 8 triangles, three of which are shaded in. This as fraction would look like 3/8.

Add up 1 + 3/8 and you get 1 and 3/8.

Thus, your answer is B.
