Question

assume that each circle shown below represents one unit. express the shaded amount as a single fraction and as a mixed number. answer attempt 2 out of 2 one fraction: mixed number:

Explanation:

Step1: Determine parts of whole

The first circle is whole (8/8) and the second circle has 1 out of 8 parts shaded.

Step2: Calculate single - fraction

The single - fraction is $\frac{8 + 1}{8}=\frac{9}{8}$.

Step3: Convert to mixed number

Dividing 9 by 8 gives 1 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder. So the mixed number is $1\frac{1}{8}$.

Answer:

One Fraction: $\frac{9}{8}$
Mixed Number: $1\frac{1}{8}$
