Question

Each square below represents one whole.

Answer 1

Answer:175%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent means per hundred.

So, we need an equivalent ratio that will tell us how many pieces would be shaded out of 100100100 pieces per whole.

7 shaded parts times 25 equals 175 shaded parts. 4 parts per whole times 25 equals 100 parts per whole. 7 to 4 is equivalent to 175 to 100.

Answer 2

Answer:

SQUARE 1:

100% ; 75%

Step-by-step explanation:

SQUARE 1:

If each square represents a whole ; the percentage of a whole = 100%

Dividing the square into 4 equal parts :

Percentage of each part :

100% ÷ 4 = 25%

Percentage represented by the shaded part:

(Percentage of each shaded part * number of shaded part)

(25% * 4) = 100%

SQUARE 2:

each square represents a whole ; the percentage of a whole = 100%

Dividing the square into 4 equal parts :

Percentage of each part :

100% ÷ 4 = 25%

Percentage represented by the shaded part:

(Percentage of each shaded part * number of shaded part)

(25% * 3) = 75%
