there are 10rows and 10 columns of squares.

4 rows are completely black so adds 40, plus 3 of them are colored to 6 blocks, so adds 3*6=18

58 of 100 is 58%

Explanation:

Step 1: Find the percent shaded

Count how many shaded blocks are there: 58 shaded

Count how many un-shaded blocks are there: 42 un-shaded

To find the percent shaded:

Amount Shaded / Total Blocks

58 / 100

0.58 * 100
