Example Question #25 : Reason With Shapes And Their Attributes
If I cut a rectangle into fourths, how am I changing the size?
The four pieces will be the same size as the rectangle
The four pieces will be different sizes
The four pieces will be bigger than the rectangle
The four pieces will be smaller than the rectangle
The four pieces will be smaller than the rectangle
When we cut something in fourths, we get four smaller pieces that equal each other. If we put those pieces back together, we’d get the original size of the rectangle.
Example Question #26 : Reason With Shapes And Their Attributes
If I cut a rectangle in half, how am I changing the size?
Each piece will be different sizes
Each piece will be the same size as the rectangle
Each piece will be bigger than the rectangle
Each pieces will be smaller than the rectangle, they will be half the size.
Each pieces will be smaller than the rectangle, they will be half the size.
When we cut something in half, we get two smaller pieces that equal each other. If we put those pieces back together, we’d get the original size of the rectangle.
Example Question #31 : Reason With Shapes And Their Attributes
If I cut a rectangle into two parts, I am cutting it in ___________.
Fourths
Quarters
Half
