A two-part tape diagram where the parts 14 and 9 are joined under a bracket labeled 23, modeling a basic addition problem.
A tape diagram modeling subtraction where the whole bar is 30, one segment is 12, and the remaining segment is marked with a question mark.
A two-bar tape diagram comparing quantities in a 2:3 ratio, with each unit clearly divided and labeled.
A tape diagram divided into 5 equal segments where 3 are shaded to represent the fraction 3/5.
A tape diagram with four equal segments each labeled 6, and a total bracket of 24, modeling 4 x 6.
A tape diagram for a word problem where Sam has 15 red marbles and 11 blue marbles, and the total is the unknown.
Start with one of these examples, then adapt the subject, labels, data, or layout for your own use.
A two-part tape diagram where the parts 14 and 9 are joined under a bracket labeled 23, modeling a basic addition problem.
Create a clean labeled tape diagram for addition: one long bar divided into two segments, left labeled 14 and right labeled 9, with a bracket below the full bar labeled 23 (the total). Classic textbook style, bold readable numbers. White background.
A tape diagram modeling subtraction where the whole bar is 30, one segment is 12, and the remaining segment is marked with a question mark.
Create a labeled tape diagram for subtraction: a bar representing 30 total, the left segment labeled 12, the right segment labeled with a question mark, and a bracket over the full bar showing 30. Arrows indicate the unknown. Classic style. White background.
A two-bar tape diagram comparing quantities in a 2:3 ratio, with each unit clearly divided and labeled.
Create a labeled tape diagram showing a ratio of 2:3. Draw two bars side by side: the top bar has 2 equal units labeled A, the bottom bar has 3 equal units labeled B. Each unit is the same size. Bracket each bar with its count. Classic style. White background.
A tape diagram divided into 5 equal segments where 3 are shaded to represent the fraction 3/5.
Create a labeled tape diagram for the fraction 3/5. One horizontal bar divided into 5 equal segments. Shade the first 3 segments and label them 3/5. The remaining 2 segments are unshaded, labeled 2/5. A bracket over the whole bar is labeled 1 whole. Colorful style. White background.
A tape diagram generator is a tool that draws labeled rectangular bar models from a plain description of a math scenario. Tape diagrams, also called bar models or strip diagrams, break a problem into visible parts: each section of the rectangle represents a number or quantity, and brackets and labels show the relationships between parts and the whole. Figviz uses AI to turn a short description into a clean, print-ready tape diagram without any manual drawing or grid work.
State every known value and mark the unknown with a question mark so the diagram communicates the problem at a glance. Keep the number of segments proportional to the values when possible, since mismatched sizes confuse readers. For ratio problems, use two separate bars with the same unit size so the scale comparison is honest. Add a bracket over the full bar whenever you want to label the total, and use a bracket below a segment to call out a part. If you are making a set of diagrams for a worksheet, keep the style consistent (classic or minimal) so the focus stays on the math.
