To determine the percent indicated by the shaded area in a grid, you need to count the number of shaded cells and divide it by the total number of cells in the grid. Multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.
In the provided question, you are given the answer as 41%, so there is no need to calculate it.
To write a percentage as a decimal, divide the percentage by 100.
In the case of 15%, divide 15 by 100:
15 / 100 = 0.15
Therefore, 15% as a decimal is 0.15.
To write a decimal as a percentage, multiply the decimal by 100.
In the case of 5.6, multiply 5.6 by 100:
5.6 * 100 = 560
Therefore, 5.6 as a percentage is 560%.
To write a percentage as a fraction, make the percentage the numerator and 100 the denominator. Simplify the fraction if possible.
In the case of 0.5%, the fraction is:
0.5/100
Simplifying the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 0.5, we get:
1/200
Therefore, 0.5% as a fraction in simplest form is 1/200.
To write a mixed number as a percentage, convert the mixed number to an improper fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator, and multiply the result by 100.
In the case of 3 3/5, we first convert it to an improper fraction:
(3 * 5 + 3) / 5 = 18/5
Next, we divide the numerator by the denominator:
18 / 5 = 3.6
Finally, we multiply the result by 100:
3.6 * 100 = 360
Therefore, 3 3/5 as a percentage is 360%.
To calculate how far Mays drives before lunch, multiply the total distance (120 miles) by the percentage of the distance traveled before stopping for lunch (35%).
35/100 * 120 = 0.35 * 120 = 42 miles
Therefore, Mays drives 42 miles before stopping for lunch.
