Description

This image is another variation, now showing the fraction 3/4. It likely displays the numerical fraction 3/4 alongside a circular fraction model. The circular model would be divided into four equal sectors, with three sectors shaded to represent the numerator.

This representation further reinforces how the numerator changes while the denominator remains constant. It visually demonstrates that 3/4 is three times as much as 1/4 and more than 2/4, while still being part of the same whole.

Teachers can use this image to discuss how fractions approach a whole as the numerator increases, and to introduce the concept of proper and improper fractions.

Teacher's Script: "Here we see 3/4. The circle is still divided into four parts, but now three parts are shaded. How does this compare to 1/4 and 2/4? What fraction would we have if all four parts were shaded?"
