Answer:

3 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

The question given is not complete, the diagram of the shape is supposed to be attached. But I would provide you with a diagram and show you how to solve this type of problem.

The diagram of the shape is attached below. Firstly, you have to count the number of squares in the shape. As it can been seen from the diagram, there are a total 18 squares (i.e 6 squares on each row × 3 squares on each column).

Secondly you have to find 1/6 of the total number of the squares in the shape. 1/6 of the total number of the square in the shape = 1/6 × 18 = 3 squares

Therefore 3 squares would have to be shaded so that 1/6 of the shape is shaded

Answer:

Split the number into the whole number component and fraction component.

5 8/25= 5+8/25.

For the denominator, recognize that

25×4=100.

Multiple =4.

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the multiple 4.

8×4/ 25×4.

Simplify.

32/100=0.32

Combine the whole number component with the decimal.

5+0.32=5.32

Write a proportion for 56% of a number is 244

Misha Larkins [42]

$\frac{56}{100} = \frac{244}{x}$ So, You cross multiply and get 56x=244(100). Simplify and you get 56x=24400. Divide each side by 56 and you get 435.71. 56% of about 435.71 is 244.
