what percentage of the shape is orange? \nwrite your answer using a percent sign (%).

Explanation:

Step1: Count total and orange squares

Total squares: (5\times10 = 50)? Wait, no, let's count rows. Each row has 5 squares? Wait, looking at the grid: let's count rows. Let's see, the grid has 10 rows (vertical) and 5 columns? Wait, no, let's count the orange and white. Let's count the number of orange squares. Let's see: first 9 rows (from top) have 4 orange and 1 white? Wait, no, last row: let's count each row.

Row 1: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 2: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 3: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 4: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 5: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 6: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 7: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 8: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 9: 4 orange, 1 white

Row 10: 3 orange, 2 white

Wait, no, maybe columns: 5 columns (horizontal) and 10 rows (vertical). So total squares: (5\times10 = 50)? Wait, no, 5 columns and 10 rows: 510=50? Wait, no, 5 columns (each column has 10 squares? Wait, no, the grid is 5 columns (width) and 10 rows (height). So total squares: 510=50. Now count orange squares:

First 9 rows: each row has 4 orange (since 5 columns, 1 white). So 9*4=36. Then 10th row: 3 orange (since last row: let's see, the last row: first 3 orange, then 2 white? Wait, the last row (bottom row) has 3 orange, 1 white, 1 white? Wait, the image: "the last row: orange, orange, orange, white, white". So 3 orange. So total orange: 36 + 3 = 39? Wait, no, maybe I miscounted. Wait, let's do it again.

Wait, maybe the grid is 5 columns (x-axis) and 10 rows (y-axis). So columns: 5 (1 to 5), rows: 10 (1 to 10, top to bottom).

Row 1 (top): columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4 orange

Row 2: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 3: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 4: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 5: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 6: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 7: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 8: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 9: columns 1-4 orange, column 5 white → 4

Row 10 (bottom): columns 1-3 orange, column 4 white, column 5 white → 3 orange

So total orange: 9*4 + 3 = 36 + 3 = 39? Wait, no, that can't be. Wait, maybe I got rows and columns reversed. Let's check the number of white squares. Let's count white squares:

Row 1: 1

Row 2: 1

Row 3: 1

Row 4: 1

Row 5: 1

Row 6: 1

Row 7: 1

Row 8: 1

Row 9: 1

Row 10: 2

Total white: 91 + 2 = 11. So total squares: 50 (510). So orange squares: 50 - 11 = 39? Wait, no, 5*10=50, white=11, so orange=39. Then percentage: (39/50)*100 = 78%. Wait, 39 divided by 50 is 0.78, times 100 is 78%.

Wait, let's confirm: 5 columns, 10 rows: 510=50. White squares: let's count again. Each of the first 9 rows has 1 white (column 5), so 91=9. Then 10th row (bottom) has 2 white (columns 4 and 5), so 9+2=11 white. So orange: 50-11=39. Then (39/50)*100 = 78%. So the percentage is 78%.

Step2: Calculate percentage

Percentage = (Number of orange squares / Total squares) * 100

Number of orange squares = 39, Total squares = 50

So (\frac{39}{50} \times 100 = 78%)

Answer:

78%
