Explanation:

Step1: Shade 28 grid squares

A 10x10 grid has 100 squares; 28% means 28 shaded squares. (The grid currently has 28 shaded squares, which is correct.)

Step2: Convert % to decimal

Divide percentage by 100: $28\% = \frac{28}{100} = 0.28$

Step3: Simplify the fraction

Reduce $\frac{28}{100}$ by GCD 4: $\frac{28\div4}{100\div4} = \frac{7}{25}$

Answer:

1. Grid: 28 squares are shaded (as shown in the provided grid)
2. Decimal: $0.28$
3. Simplest fraction: $\frac{7}{25}$
