The percentage represented by the shaded area is 72.5%
What percent is represented by the shaded area?
from the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
The figure
Where, we have
Shaded = 1 whole and 45 units
Also, we have
Wholes = 2
Using the above as a guide, we have the following:
Shaded Fraction = Shaded/Wholes
So, we have
Shaded Fraction = (1 + 0.45)/2
Shaded Fraction = (1.45)/2
Evaluate
Shaded Fraction = 72.5%
Hence, the percentage represented by the shaded area is 72.5%
