If each square represents 0.01, which of these show fractions that are greater than 0.5? Select all that apply.

Four 100 grids labeled A through D. Grid A shows 50 squares shaded. Grid B shows 65 squares shaded. Grid C shows 37 squares shaded. Grid D shows 23 squares shaded.

Answer 1

Only B.

Reason: each square = 0.01, so count × 0.01 gives the decimal. A = 50×0.01 = 0.50 (not greater), B = 65×0.01 = 0.65 (>0.5), C = 37×0.01 = 0.37, D = 23×0.01 = 0.23.
