Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 3.76 Partitioning Different Shapes into Equal Areas skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Use the image. A shape is divided into 8 equal parts, and 3 parts are highlighted. Which statement correctly uses the numerator and denominator?
A3/8 is highlighted because 3 parts are highlighted out of 8 equal parts
B8/3 is highlighted because 8 parts are total and 3 are highlighted
C3/5 is highlighted because 5 parts are unhighlighted
D1/8 is highlighted because each part is one part
Solution & Explanation:The numerator tells the number of highlighted equal parts, 3. The denominator tells the total equal parts, 8. So the fraction is 3/8.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Use the image. A rectangle is rotated, but it is still divided into 3 equal strips. One strip is highlighted. Which fraction is highlighted?
A1/3, because one of three equal strips is highlighted
B1/2, because the rectangle is tilted
C2/3, because two strips are unhighlighted
D3/1, because three strips make the whole
Solution & Explanation:Rotating the rectangle does not change the equal areas. One highlighted strip out of 3 equal strips is 1/3.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Use the image. A square is partitioned into 4 equal-area regions: two triangle-shaped regions and two four-sided regions. One four-sided region is highlighted. What fraction is highlighted?
A1/4
B1/2
C2/4
DNo fraction, because the regions have different shapes
Solution & Explanation:All 4 regions have equal area even though they have different shapes. One highlighted region is 1/4 of the square.
