on the number line. Put appropriate signs between the fractions given.
(a)
In the first circle, 3 parts are shaded out of 8 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the second circle, 6 parts are shaded out of 8 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the third circle, 4 parts are shaded out of 8 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the fourth circle, 1 part is shaded out of 8 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
All these fractions are like fractions because they have same denominators. Fraction with the greater numerator is greater.
(b)
In the first square, 8 parts are shaded out of 9 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the second square, 4 parts are shaded out of 9 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the third square, 3 parts are shaded out of 9 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
In the fourth square, 6 parts are shaded out of 9 parts. Therefore, fraction of shaded portion
All these fractions are like fractions because they have same denominators. Fraction with the greater numerator is greater.
