Question

the shape is cut into 8 equal parts. shade \\(\frac{1}{4}\\) of the shape.

Explanation:

Step1: Find the number of parts to shade

To find how many parts to shade, we calculate $\frac{1}{4}$ of the total number of parts (8). The formula is $\frac{1}{4} \times 8$.
$\frac{1}{4} \times 8 = \frac{8}{4} = 2$

Step2: Shade the parts

We need to shade 2 out of the 8 equal parts of the circle.

Answer:

Shade 2 of the 8 equal parts of the circle. (In the diagram, select 2 of the 8 slices to shade using the shading tool.)
