Fraction of the shape shaded on these two shapes??
1 answer:
The one of the left isn't too tricky, in the bottom left of it you have 1/2 of 1/4 of the shape, and on the bottom right you have 1/4 of 1/4. Imagine the whole shape was cut up like that bottom right bit into 16 triangles, then you would have three of them shaded (see my diagram).
The one on the right seems like guesswork to me, so I'm sorry if I'm wrong. It look like you just have to use your eyes to work out how much of the bottom half of the shape is shaded: looks like 1/16 to me (i.e. you can draw four of those along and four down, again, see my diagram.) So plus the top half, which is 8/16, you get 9/16.
Answers: left picture: 3/16.
right picture: 9/16.

He has £160 out of £400 saved up. Just rewrite that as a fraction and then there are two ways to finish it off.
The first way would be to just divide.
Then turn that decimal into a percentage by multiplying by 100.

The second way would be simplify the fraction until the denominator is 100. The numerator is your answer.
