Match each of the given fractions in column B with the corresponding verbal expression and figure.

Column A	Column B	Column C
(i) four-fifths	(a) $\frac{5}{9}$	A.
(ii) two-eighths	(b) $\frac{4}{5}$	B.
(iii) five-ninths	(c) $\frac{2}{5}$	C.
(iv) two-fifths	(d) $\frac{4}{7}$	D.
(v) four-sevenths	(e) $\frac{2}{8}$

Accepted Answer

Fractions represent parts of a whole. They do this with a numerator (i.e., the number of parts present) and a denominator (i.e., the number of parts that make up the whole). We can write to them as numerals.

A.

The above figure represents $\frac{2}{8}$ (two-eighths).

B.

The above figure represents $\frac{5}{9}$ (five-ninths).

C.

The above figure represents $\frac{4}{7}$ (four-sevenths).

D.

The above figure represents $\frac{4}{5}$ (four-fifths).

E.

The above figure represents $\frac{2}{5}$ (two-fifths).

Hence, the required fractions in column B with the corresponding verbal expression and figure:

Column A Column B Column C

(i) four-fifths (b) $\frac{4}{5}$ D.

(ii) two-eighths (e) $\frac{2}{8}$ A.

(iii) five-ninths (a) $\frac{5}{9}$ B.

(iv) two-fifths (c) $\frac{2}{5}$ E.

(v) four-sevenths (d) $\frac{4}{7}$ C.
