Answer:

75%

Explanation:

The circle is divided into 8 parts and 6 of those are shaded.

so as a fraction it would be 6/8

simplified it would be 3/4

percent is out of 100 so you have to make the denominator as 100

25 x 4 (the denominator of 3/4) is 100

25 x 3 ( the numerator of 3/4) is 75 you have to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number.

now you have 75/100

which is 75 percent

Hope this helps :)
