Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Count total and purple squares
The grid is a (10 \times 10) square, so total squares (= 10\times10 = 100).
Purple squares: Let's count. The purple region is (6) columns (width) and (10) rows (height)? Wait, no, looking at the grid: the purple part is 6 columns (since from left, 6 columns are purple) and 10 rows? Wait, no, actually, let's count the purple cells. Each row has 6 purple cells (first 6 columns), and there are 10 rows? Wait, no, the grid is 10x10. Wait, the purple area: let's see, the first 6 columns (since the 7th column is white). So each row has 6 purple cells, 10 rows: (6\times10 = 60)? Wait, no, wait the top row: first 6 cells purple, then 4 white. So each row: 6 purple. 10 rows: (6\times10 = 60)? Wait, no, wait the grid is 10 columns (horizontal) and 10 rows (vertical). So total cells (10\times10 = 100). Purple cells: let's count the columns. The purple columns: 6 columns (columns 1 - 6), each with 10 cells. So (6\times10 = 60). Wait, but wait the first row: the 6th column is purple? Wait the image: the top row has 6 purple cells (first 6), then 4 white. So yes, 6 per row, 10 rows: 60.
Step2: Calculate percentage
Percentage (= \frac{\text{Purple cells}}{\text{Total cells}} \times 100% = \frac{60}{100} \times 100% = 60%).
Answer:
(60%)
