Question

which problem does the model represent?
\\(\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{5}{6}\\)
\\(\frac{3}{6} \times \frac{4}{5}\\)
\\(\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{6}\\)
\\(\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{6}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the model's first fraction

The model has 6 total rows, 4 shaded orange/red. This is $\frac{4}{6}$.

Step2: Analyze the model's second fraction

Of the 4 shaded rows, 3 are dark red. This is $\frac{3}{4}$.

Step3: Match to the expression

The model represents $\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{6}$.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{6}$ (the third purple tile problem)
