Recognise Fractions of Shapes

These shapes have a quarter shaded (¼) because the shaded part is one part out of four equal parts.

1/4 shaded                                     
             

This shape has three quarters shaded (¾) because the shaded part is three parts out of four equal parts.

3/4 shaded            

This shape has two quarters shaded (2/4) because the shaded part is two parts out of four equal parts. But it is better to say that it has half shaded (½).

1/2 shaded            

This shape has one third shaded (1/3) because the shaded part is one part out of three equal parts.

1/3 shaded           

Are you happy with all those? If you're not too sure, go back and have another look at the shaded shapes before starting the questions.

That way, you'll be a super maths wizard!
