question 5
if one circle represents \one whole\, what fraction of area is shaded blue? give your answer as a mixed number.

Explanation:

Count the fully shaded wholes

$$ 1 \text{ whole circle is completely shaded.} $$

Determine the fractional part of the second circle

$$ \text{Total equal sectors} = 3 $$

$$ \text{Shaded sectors} = 2 $$

$$ \text{Fraction shaded} = \frac{2}{3} $$

Combine into a mixed number

$$ 1 + \frac{2}{3} = 1\frac{2}{3} $$

Answer:

If one circle represents "one whole", what fraction of area is shaded blue? Give your answer as a mixed number. <blank>\(1\frac{2}{3}\)</blank>
