Math Problem Statement

The image provided by the user shows a pie chart divided into three parts, with two parts shaded. The user is asked to determine the fraction of the pie chart that is shaded.

Solution

The image you've provided shows a pie chart that is divided into three parts, with two of the parts shaded, and it seems that the problem is asking you to determine what fraction of the pie chart is shaded.

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:

  1. Count the total number of parts in the pie chart:

    • There are 3 parts in total.
  2. Count the number of shaded parts:

    • 2 out of 3 parts are shaded.
  3. Express the shaded portion as a fraction:

    • The fraction representing the shaded area is 23\frac{2}{3}.

So, the correct answer to the question is 23\frac{2}{3}.

Would you like more details or have any other questions?

Here are some related questions:

  1. How would you convert the fraction 23\frac{2}{3} into a decimal?
  2. How can you express the fraction 23\frac{2}{3} as a percentage?
  3. If the pie chart had 4 equal parts and 3 were shaded, what would be the fraction of the shaded area?
  4. How would the answer change if only one part of the three was shaded?
  5. Can you relate this problem to real-world situations where fractions are used?

Tip: When working with fractions, remember that the denominator (bottom number) represents the total number of equal parts, and the numerator (top number) represents how many of those parts are of interest (shaded, selected, etc.).
