If 2/5 of a figure is shaded, what percent is not shaded?

3 answers

2/5 is 0.4. Multiply by 100, you get 40% -> 40% of the figure is shaded. so the percentage of the figure that is not shaded is 100% - 40% = 60%
Each square below represents one whole.



What percent is represented by the shaded area?
thank you
