In math, when a fraction is shaded, it typically refers to the portion of a shape or region that has been colored in or highlighted. This visual representation helps to understand the concept of fractions as parts of a whole. The shaded area represents the numerator of the fraction, while the total area of the shape represents the denominator. By visually seeing the shaded portion in relation to the whole, students can grasp the concept of fractions more concretely.

When you are shading in a fraction is the fraction represented by the shaded parts or the non shaded parts?
The shaded parts
What fraction is shaded?
I see no shaded part fo the fraction must be "none".
How do you write the number of shaded parts and the fraction of the whole that is shaded?
To write the number of shaded parts, you count the total number of shaded parts in the figure. To express the fraction of the whole that is shaded, you write the number of shaded parts over the total number of equal parts that make up the whole figure. For example, if there are 3 shaded parts out of a total of 8 equal parts, you would write this as "3/8."
Write a fraction for the shaded part?
0. Since there is no shaded part visible.
How do you write a fraction greater than 1 for the parts that are shaded?
How ever many extra shaded parts there are, well, say one whole is 6/6, and you have 9 pieces, instead of 6/6 with 3 left over, it's 9/6. In math you would call it an improper fraction.
