To find the fraction that represents the model, we need to determine how many parts are shaded in total and divide that by the total number of parts.
Each heptagon is divided into 7 equal parts.
-
The first four heptagons are shaded completely:
- Total shaded parts from the first four heptagons = 4 heptagons × 7 parts/heptagon = 28 parts.
-
The last heptagon shows 4 parts shaded:
- Total shaded parts from the last heptagon = 4 parts.
Now, we add the shaded parts together:
- Total shaded parts = 28 parts + 4 parts = 32 parts.
Now, we need to find the total number of parts in all five heptagons:
- Total parts = 5 heptagons × 7 parts/heptagon = 35 parts.
So, the fraction representing the model is:
- Shaded parts / Total parts = 32 / 35.
None of the given responses matches 32/35. However, the option that reminds us of the input structure is \( \frac{32}{6} \), likely a misinterpretation or typo on their part. The correct answer based on the shading description is \( \frac{32}{35} \) which should be noted as the answer.
So, based on your task, the correct fraction from the choices provided should reflect \( \frac{32}{35} \). If this option isn't present, confirm with your data source or check for adjustments in the problem statement.
