Answer:
percent means <u>per hundred </u>
Between the 100 squares, 60 of them are shaded
so you do 60/100
it's kind of like correcting tests, you have 100 questions, you got 80 of them right so its going to be 80/100
when you calculate percentage, you do the fraction x 100
so it's 60/100 = 0.6 x100 = 60%

Step-by-step explanation:
You would have to transform the fractions to decimals by dividing. For the first one, if you divide 4 by 5 you get .8. To transform a decimal to percent you move the decimal place 2 times to the right or multiply by 100 (They both would give you the same thing)
The perimeter is 48 inches if that's what you need to know...
