The large rectangle below represents one whole What percent is represented by the shaded area class=

Respuesta :

Answer: 44%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture , it can be seen that the rectangle is divided into 25 equal sections.

The number of shaded sections= 11

Now, the percent is represented by the shaded area is given by :_

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Number of shaded sections}}{\text{Total sections}}\times100\\\=\dfrac{11}{25}\times100=44\%[/tex]

Hence, the  percent is represented by the shaded area =44%

Answer:

44%

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of shaded pieces to total pieces is 11 : 25.

Percent means per hundred.

So, we need an equivalent ratio that will tell us how many pieces would be shaded out of 100 total pieces.

44:100= 44 per hundred = 44%

44% is represented by the shaded area.

Hope this helped!! :D
