Question

Express the shaded Area as both a faction and a decimal

Answer 1

The shaded area's Fraction= 21/100 and Decimal = 0.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

When an area is divided into multiple smaller regions ( smaller squares ) is called parts.

In case of Squares, it can be divided into either rows or columns, sometimes both.  

Form the given diagram, the square consists of 10 rows and 10 columns which makes 100 (10×10) parts in it.

One fraction is obtained by dividing it by the total number of parts.

In this square, 21 shaded fractions are given.

∴ The fraction of shaded Area = 21/100.

Decimal of shaded Area=0.21.
