Answer:
F. 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of an area of a rectagle:
[tex]A=wl[/tex]
w - width
l - length
The large rectangle:
w = 5, l = 5
[tex]A_L=5\cdot5=25[/tex]
The small rectangle:
w = 1, l = 2
[tex]A_S=1\cdot2=2[/tex]
Calculate what percentage of the area of a large rectangle is a small rectangle.
Method 1:
[tex]\dfrac{2}{25}\cdot100\%=2\cdot4=8\%[/tex]
Method 2:
[tex]\begin{matrix}25&-&100\%&\text{divide both sides by 25}\\\\1&-&4\%&\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\2&-&8\%\end{matrix}[/tex]
