Grid Pattern Analysis: Identifying Marked Squares in a 10-Unit Sequence

Question

What is the marked part?

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem of finding the fraction of the marked part in the grid:

The grid consists of a series of squares, each of equal size. The task is to count how many squares are marked compared to the entire grid.

  • First, count the total number of squares in the entire grid.
  • Next, count the number of marked (colored) squares.
  • Then, calculate the fraction of the marked part by dividing the number of marked squares by the total number of squares.

Let's perform these steps:

The grid displays several rows of columns. Visually, there appear to be a total of 10 squares in one row with corresponding columns, forming a grid.

Count the marked squares from the provided SVG graphic:

  • There are 4 shaded (marked) regions.

Total squares: 10 (lines are shown for organizing squares, as seen).

Calculate the fraction:

marked squarestotal squares=410 \frac{\text{marked squares}}{\text{total squares}} = \frac{4}{10}

Thus, the marked part of the shape can be given as a fraction: 410 \frac{4}{10} .

Answer

410 \frac{4}{10}
