Answer:

44%, and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The grid has 5 rows and 5 columns so we have 5*5 = 25 squares.

25 squares represent 100 %  of the grid

a) In the grid 11 of the 25 total squares are blue, so if

25 squares are 100%

11 squares will be x%

x= (11* 100) / 25 = 1100/ 25 = 44 %

b) we find the number of squares that gives us 60 %

25 squares are 100%

x squares will be 60%

x= (60*25)/ 100 = 15

The question is " How many more squares " so we have to compare with the 11 given ones in part a)

15 -11 = 4

4 more squares will give 60 %  blue grid.  

The answer should be 25 squares is 100 percent
