            example 1.  Mohit has 14 roses. 3 of them are

                           red. What is the fraction representing:

                         a. Red roses out of the total roses?

                         b.   Roses not red out of the total roses?


            Solution.  a.  Total number of roses = 14, Number of red roses = 3
                                                                       3
                             Fraction representing red roses =            .
                                                                       14
                         b.  Number of roses which are not red = 14 – 3 = 11
                                                                            11
                               Fraction representing roses not red =           .
                                                                            14
                                                                                                   1
            example 2.  Neena had 24 chocolates. She ate half of them and gave   to her sister.

                         a.  How many chocolates did she eat?                                      4

                         b.  How many chocolates did she give to her sister?
