I’m missing the full shading pattern — could you upload the picture or say how the rest of the columns are shaded?

If you meant only the first two columns are shaded (10 squares in column 1 and 6 in column 2, all other columns unshaded), then shaded squares = 10 + 6 = 16 out of 100, so 16%.

If you meant the shading continues by subtracting 4 each column (10, 6, 2, then 0 for the remaining columns), shaded = 10+6+2 = 18, so 18%.

If you meant the shading decreases by 1 each column (10,9,8,…,1), shaded = 10+9+…+1 = 55, so 55%.

Tell me which pattern is intended (or share the image) and I’ll give the exact percent.
