Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Using paper folding

The numbers that are found to have been constructed to measure different parts of a complete object are known as fractional numbers (or fractions).
Note that:

  • Modelling situations using quantities, shapes and forms is one of the best strategies would be most appropriate to follow.
  • Such representations aid visualization, clarify essentials, help us discard irrelevant information. 
  • Again, what we need are illustrations that show a multiplicity of representations so that the relative advantages can be understood.
  • For example, a fraction can be well understood through an object and its cut pieces that means, to explain the error by using a fraction kit or paper folding.
  • Representations are useful and appropriate in a different context.

Hence, we conclude that the above situation can be best explained by using paper folding.
