Partitioning Shapes into Equal Areas

The video tutorial explains how to divide shapes into equal parts and calculate the area of each part. It begins with a square, dividing it into four equal parts, and then moves to a rectangle, dividing it into eight equal parts. The concept of unit fractions is introduced, showing how each part represents a fraction of the total area. The lesson concludes with a summary of partitioning shapes into equal areas.

What fraction represents the shaded area of the square?

• One-half

• One-fourth

• One-eighth

• One-third
