Question

what percentage of the shape is orange?
write your answer using a percent sign (%).

Explanation:

Step1: Count total grid cells

The grid is 10x10, so total cells = $10 \times 10 = 100$

Step2: Count white grid cells

White cells: $8 + 10 = 18$

Step3: Calculate orange cell count

Orange cells = Total - White = $100 - 18 = 82$

Step4: Convert to percentage

Percentage = $\frac{\text{Orange Cells}}{\text{Total Cells}} \times 100\% = \frac{82}{100} \times 100\%$

Answer:

82%
