In this diagram, there are a total of 20 squares, and 9 of them are shaded. This means that 9/20 of them are shaded, and to find what percent this is, divide 9 by 20 and multiply what you get by 100.

9 divided by 20 =0.45

0.45 x 100 = 45%.

45% is your final answer!

I hope this helps and have a great rest of your day!
