The percentage of the grid that is shaded is 52% and the additional number of squares to get 80% shaded grids is 7
The complete question is added as an attachment
From the question, we have the following parameters:
So, the percentage of the grid that is shaded is
Percentage = Shaded grids/Total number of grids
This gives
Percentage = 13/25
Evaluate the quotient
Percentage = 0.52
Express as percentage
Percentage = 52%
Hence, the percentage of the grid that is shaded is 52%
In (a), we have:
Percentage = 13/25
Let the additional number of grids be x.
So, we have:
Percentage = (13 + x)/25
The new percentage is 80%.
So, we have:
(13 + x)/25 = 80%
Multiply both sides by 25
13 + x = 20
Subtract 13 from both sides
x = 7
Hence, the additional number of squares to get 80% shaded grids is 7
