proper fractions and represent them pictorially.

Accepted Answer

We know that,

The fractions which are less than one and are parts of a whole are called proper fractions.

In proper fractions, the numerator is always less than the denominator.

Some examples of proper fractions are represented below pictorially.

Consider the fraction $\frac{5}{8}$ .

Here,

The denominator is greater than the numerator, $8 > 5$

So, it is a proper fraction.

Consider the fraction $\frac{1}{4}$

Here,

The denominator is greater than the numerator, $4 > 1$

So, it is a proper fraction.

Consider the fraction $\frac{2}{8}$ .

Here,

The denominator is greater than the numerator, $8 > 2$

So, it is a proper fraction.

Consider the fraction $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Here,

The denominator is greater than the numerator, $3 > 1$

So, it is a proper fraction.

Consider the fraction $\frac{3}{4}$ .

Here,

The denominator is greater than the numerator, $4 > 3$

So, it is a proper fraction.

Hence, $5$ proper fractions are represented pictorially.

Write $5$ proper fractions and represent them pictorially.
