Given:
Each big square represents one whole.
To find:
The percent represented by the shaded area.
Solution:
One big square have 100 small square.
Shaded part of first big square = 100
Fraction of shaded part of first big square =
![(100)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/rtx8ud0meb07xnqpxkj7a2t35d59yeq8q3.png)
Shaded part of second big square = 19
Fraction of shaded part of second big square =
![(19)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/72ozm7531ly2qya0j8ykpt3winh60s3t5r.png)
Fraction of total shaded area:
![$=(100)/(100)+(19)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/45j1yh7t0hqkbykdrjilevj9sixr81cpsv.png)
![$=(100+19)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/zv3zkbhgm55cwtskf9yund6lnb4ei6gq8t.png)
![$=(119)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/xqe9hboo029w27k79ct1fhbq7ouyqrn5o4.png)
Percent of shaded area:
![$=(119)/(100)* 100\%](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/xqlfw4fgrgaea8e534s0i1xd2k7f4j2nh4.png)
= 119%
The shaded area is 119%.
