Question

show 78% in three ways: to start, shade 78% of the grid. click and drag to shade: write 78% as a decimal: 78% = \square write 78% as a fraction in simplest form: 78% = \square

Explanation:

Step1: Shade 78 grid squares

A 10x10 grid has 100 total squares. 78% means 78 out of 100, so shade 78 individual squares.

Step2: Convert % to decimal

Divide percentage by 100: $78\% = \frac{78}{100} = 0.78$

Step3: Simplify the fraction

Find GCD of 78 and 100 (GCD=2), divide numerator/denominator: $\frac{78\div2}{100\div2} = \frac{39}{50}$

Answer:

1. Shade 78 out of the 100 squares in the grid.
2. $78\% = 0.78$
3. $78\% = \frac{39}{50}$
