✓
Answer
The first figure represents $1$ shaded parts out of $2$ equal parts= $\frac12$
The second figure represents $2$ shaded parts out of $4$ equal parts= $\frac24=\;\frac{2\div2}{4\div2}=\;\frac12$
The third figure represents $3$ shaded parts out of $6$ equal parts. $\frac36=\;\frac{3\div3}{6\div6}=\;\frac12$
The fourth figure represents $4$ shaded parts out of $8$ equal parts. $\frac48=\;\frac{4\div4}{8\div4}=\;\frac12$
So, all these fractions are equivalent.
