Sagot :

Answer:

[tex]\%Percent = 30 \%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Shaded = 6\ cubes[/tex]

[tex]Box = 5\ x\ 4[/tex]

Required

Determine the percentage of the shaded cubes

First, we calculate the number of boxes:

[tex]Box = 5\ x\ 4[/tex]

Express as multiplication

[tex]Box = 5\ *\ 4[/tex]

[tex]Box = 20[/tex]

This implies that there are 20 cubes in the box.

The percentage of the shaded cubes is:

[tex]\%Percent = \frac{Shaded}{Box} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Percent = \frac{6}{20} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Percent = \frac{6* 100}{20} \%[/tex]

[tex]\%Percent = \frac{600}{20} \%[/tex]

[tex]\%Percent = 30 \%[/tex]

30% were shaded
