Solution
| Column I | Column II |
| (i) `6/4` | (D) |
| (ii) `6/10` | (A) |
| (iii) `6/6` | (E) |
| (iv) `6/16` | (B) |
| (v) `6/7` | (C) |
Explanation:
On observing the figures given in Column II, we get
(a) Line is divided into 10 equal parts out of which 6 parts are shaded.
The fraction of shaded portion to the total parts = `6/10`
(b) Square is divided into 16 equal parts out of which 6 parts are shaded.
The fraction of shaded portion to the total parts = `6/16`
(c) Rectangle is divided into 7 equal parts out of which 6 parts are shaded.
The fraction of shaded portion to the total parts = `6/7`
(d) Each of the two circle is divided in 4 equal parts out of which 4 parts of one circle and 2 parts of second circle are shaded.
The fraction of shaded portion to the total parts = `(4 + 2)/(4 + 4) = 6/8`
(e) Rectangle is divided into 6 equal parts out of which 6 are shaded.
