Write a ratio and a percent for the shaded area.
it is 3x3 and 5x5 grid there is 6 shaded out of
A. 6 over 25 , 30%
B. 3 over 50 , 6%
C.6 over 25 , 24%
D. 3 over 10 , 30%***
(their are 20 squares)
plz help ASAP!!!!!
I have no idea what "there is 6 shaded out of" is supposed to mean.
3/10 = 6/20, but that does not appear to apply.
Why the two grids?
well, you have 6/20 shaded, so I guess you're ok.
(the grid was 5x4, not 5x5)
is the answer D??
To find the ratio and percent for the shaded area, we first need to count the number of shaded squares.
In this case, there are 6 shaded squares out of a total of 20 squares.
The ratio of shaded squares to total squares can be written as 6:20.
To write this ratio in simplest form, we divide both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
After simplifying, the ratio becomes 3:10.
Now, to find the percent, we divide the number of shaded squares by the total number of squares and multiply by 100.
So, (6/20) * 100 = 30%.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. 3 over 10, 30%.
it looks like this #=shaded *= not shaded
# # * * *
# # * * *
# # * * *
* * * * *
does it make more sense?
