The square below represents one whole. An array with 10 columns and 10 rows that represents 1 whole. 2 rows of 10 are shaded. 1 row of 9 is shaded. An array with 10 columns and 10 rows that represents 1 whole. 2 rows of 10 are shaded. 1 row of 9 is shaded. What percent is represented by the shaded area?
Q. The square below represents one whole. An array with 10 columns and 10 rows that represents 1 whole. 2 rows of 10 are shaded. 1 row of 9 is shaded. An array with 10 columns and 10 rows that represents 1 whole. 2 rows of 10 are shaded. 1 row of 9 is shaded. What percent is represented by the shaded area?
Calculate Total Squares: Determine the total number of squares in the array.Since the array has 10 columns and 10 rows, the total number of squares is 10 columns ×10 rows.Calculation: 10×10=100 squares.
Calculate Shaded Squares: Calculate the number of shaded squares.There are 2 full rows of 10 shaded and 1 row with 9 shaded.Calculation: $(\(2\) \text{ rows} \times \(10\) \text{ squares/row}) + (\(1\) \text{ row} \times \(9\) \text{ squares/row}) = \(20\) \text{ squares} + \(9\) \text{ squares} = \(29\) \text{ shaded squares}.
Find Shaded Area Percentage: Find the percentage of the shaded area.\(\newline\)To find the percentage, divide the number of shaded squares by the total number of squares and multiply by \(100\).\(\newline\)Calculation: \((29\) shaded squares \(/ 100\) total squares) \(* 100\% = 29\%\).
