To find which expression equals the fraction of the square that is shaded dark blue, we’ll evaluate each option step by step.
1. 1/2 + 2/6:
First, convert 2/6 to a simpler form: 2/6 = 1/3.
Now, we’ll add:
( frac{1}{2} + frac{1}{3} = frac{3}{6} + frac{2}{6} = frac{5}{6} ).
2. 1/2 × 2/3:
Now for multiplication:
( frac{1}{2} times frac{2}{3} = frac{1 times 2}{2 times 3} = frac{2}{6} = frac{1}{3} ).
3. 2/3 + 1/2:
First, find a common denominator, which is 6:
( frac{2}{3} = frac{4}{6} ) and ( frac{1}{2} = frac{3}{6} ).
Now, add:
( frac{4}{6} + frac{3}{6} = frac{7}{6} ).
From this evaluation, the final fractions evaluated are:
– ( frac
