of the 8 friends sitting together at lunch, 6 bought lunch at school. which grid represents the percent of the friends who bought lunch at school?

Answer

# Explanation: ## Step1: Calculate the percentage The formula for percentage is $\frac{\text{number of friends who bought lunch}}{\text{total number of friends}}\times100\%$. Here, the number of friends who bought lunch is 6 and the total number of friends is 8. So the percentage is $\frac{6}{8}\times100\%$. $\frac{6}{8}\times100\%=\frac{600}{8}\% = 75\%$. A 100 - square grid representing 100%, 75% would mean 75 out of 100 squares are shaded. # Answer: The grid where 75 out of 100 squares are shaded (the first grid in the top - left as it appears to have 75 shaded squares).
