Question

Ranjana was asked to shade {frac( 2/5)} of the strip shown here. She has already shaded 2 parts.
How many MORE parts does she need to shade?

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Shaded part in the given is $\frac{2}{10}$ which is equal to $\frac{1}{5}$. In order to shade $\frac{2}{5}$ of the strip, 4 parts should be shaded since there are 10 parts of the strip. in lowest form $\frac{4}{10}$ is equal to $\frac{2}{5}$.
