It is 2 .............................
Let's say that BC is x, so that AB is 4x, and AE = y.
The shaded area then is represented by 4xy/2 = 2xy.
The total area is represented by (4x+x)*y = 5xy.
The fraction of these is 2xy/5xy = 2/5.

Answer: $29.38
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate a tax of a dollar value, use this formula:
[original dollar value] * [tax percentage] = [tax]
Your original dollar value is $734.50, and your tax percentage is 4%.
734.5 * 0.04. Brett will pay $29.38 in tax.
I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.
Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.
First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.
That means 45% as a decimal is .45.
Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.
60×.45=27.
That means 45% of 60 is 27.
To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.
Have a wonderful day! :)
