Question

Write the fraction, decimal and percentage corresponding to the shaded portion in the following cases.

Accepted Answer

Given, in the question to write a fraction, decimal and percentage for shaded part given below.

Therefore, to write a fraction, decimal and percentage for shaded part we need to count the number of boxes are there in total and the number of boxes are shaded.

Now, let us count the number boxes are there in total and the number of boxes are shaded in the given picture.

$10 \times 10 = 100$

There, are $100$ boxes in total and $12$ boxes shaded.

In fractions, we have to write $\frac{No . of shaded boxes}{Total no . of boxes} = \frac{12}{100}$ .

In lowest form of fraction $= \frac{12}{100} = \frac{3}{25}$

In decimal, we have to divide the number of shaded boxes by total number of boxes $= 12 \div 100 = 0.12$ .

In percentage, we have to write out of total number of boxes how many boxes are shaded with percentage symbol $= \frac{12}{100} \times 100 = 12 %$

Hence, the fraction, decimal and percentage for shaded part given in the question.

Fraction Decimal Percentage

$\frac{3}{25}$ $0.12$ $12 %$
