What percent of the shape is shaded in?


Alright to start, let's look at the shape, it is divided into 4 equal parts, one part is shaded, which gives us 1/4, or 25% or 0.25. Then there's another part, which is half shaded, that'll be half of 1/4 or 25% or 0.25, which is 1/8 or 12.5% or 0.125. Now all you have to do is add them together.

1/4 + 1/8 = 3/8

25% + 12.5% = 37.5%

0.25 + 0.125 = 0.3725

These are your three answers you can choose from, I guess the second one won't work because the problem states not to include a % sign.

Hope this helped!
