½x = = 1 and ½ (Another way to read is “½ of 3” is “1 ½”.)

1. Shade three whole shapes in yellow (to be consistent with the order of coloring as above.)

2. Then shade ½ of the total picture blue. (Two ways to shade: ½ of each of the 3 boxes or 1 ½ cells.)

3. Where there is both yellow and blue, that is the intersection. Color it green. 3 cells of the 6 total cells make 1 ½ of the original 3 shapes shown.

Step 1 After all three shapes are made yellow, then see Steps 2 and 3 in the boxes below:

Color half blue;Blue and yellow make green
