options: (\frac{6}{8}), (\frac{1}{4}), (\frac{1}{2}), (\frac{7}{8})

Explanation:

Step1: Count total shapes

There are 2 shapes (1 triangle, 1 circle). Total = 2.

Step2: Count triangles

Number of triangles = 1.

Step3: Find fraction

Fraction = $\frac{\text{Number of triangles}}{\text{Total shapes}}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$ (corresponding to the option with $\frac{1}{2}$)
