Let's solve each part of the worksheet step by step. The goal is to write the decimal and the fraction for the shaded portion in each grid.

Each grid represents a whole, and we need to determine what fraction and decimal the shaded area represents.

---

Key Concepts:


- A 10x10 grid has 100 squares → represents hundredths (0.01 per square).
- A 10x1 strip or 10 rows/columns can represent tenths (0.1 per column/row).
- We’ll convert shaded parts into:
- Fraction: e.g., 35/100
- Decimal: e.g., 0.35

---

Now let’s go through each one:

---

a.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: First column (10 squares) + 2 more squares in second column → 12 squares
- Fraction: 12/100
- Simplify: 12/100 = 3/25
- Decimal: 0.12

✔ Answer: Fraction: 12/100 or 3/25, Decimal: 0.12

---

b.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 4 full columns → 4 × 10 = 40 squares
- Fraction: 40/100 = 2/5
- Decimal: 0.40

✔ Answer: Fraction: 40/100 or 2/5, Decimal: 0.40

---

c.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 3 full columns (30) + 6 more squares → 36 squares
- Fraction: 36/100 = 9/25
- Decimal: 0.36

✔ Answer: Fraction: 36/100 or 9/25, Decimal: 0.36

---

d.


- Grid: 10 horizontal strips (each strip = 1/10)
- Shaded: Only the bottom strip → 1 out of 10
- Fraction: 1/10
- Decimal: 0.10

✔ Answer: Fraction: 1/10, Decimal: 0.10

---

e.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: Top-left 5x5 block? Wait — actually, it looks like yellow shading covers first 5 full rows, so 50 squares
- Fraction: 50/100 = 1/2
- Decimal: 0.50

✔ Answer: Fraction: 50/100 or 1/2, Decimal: 0.50

---

f.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 7 full columns → 70 squares
- Fraction: 70/100 = 7/10
- Decimal: 0.70

✔ Answer: Fraction: 70/100 or 7/10, Decimal: 0.70

---

g.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 8 full rows → 80 squares
- Fraction: 80/100 = 4/5
- Decimal: 0.80

✔ Answer: Fraction: 80/100 or 4/5, Decimal: 0.80

---

h.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: One vertical strip (10 squares) → 1 column
- Fraction: 10/100 = 1/10
- Decimal: 0.10

✔ Answer: Fraction: 10/100 or 1/10, Decimal: 0.10

---

i.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: Entire first row → 10 squares
- Fraction: 10/100 = 1/10
- Decimal: 0.10

✔ Answer: Fraction: 10/100 or 1/10, Decimal: 0.10

---

j.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 6 full columns → 60 squares
- Fraction: 60/100 = 3/5
- Decimal: 0.60

✔ Answer: Fraction: 60/100 or 3/5, Decimal: 0.60

---

k.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 6 full columns → 60 squares
- Wait — check image: appears to be 6 full columns, same as j?
- But color is brown, maybe different?

Wait — looking closely: if it's 6 columns → 60 squares → 0.60

But let me double-check: yes, 6 columns = 60 squares.

✔ Answer: Fraction: 60/100 or 3/5, Decimal: 0.60

(If the shading is different, but based on standard interpretation, it’s 6 columns.)

Wait — actually, k might have only 60 squares shaded? Yes.

But let’s compare with j — both seem similar.

Alternatively, perhaps k is 6 rows? No — seems like columns.

Assuming 6 columns → 60 squares.

So same as j.

✔ Answer: Fraction: 60/100 or 3/5, Decimal: 0.60

---

l.


- Grid: 10x10 = 100 squares
- Shaded: 7 full columns → 70 squares
- Fraction: 70/100 = 7/10
- Decimal: 0.70

✔ Answer: Fraction: 70/100 or 7/10, Decimal: 0.70

---

Wait — now I notice: j and k both look like 60 and 60? But colors differ.

Let’s recheck carefully:

Actually, k may be 6 rows? Or 6 columns?

But in most such worksheets, vertical strips are columns.

But in k, it's shaded in brown, and spans 6 full columns from left → 60 squares.

Similarly, j is blue, also 6 columns → 60.

But l is purple, 7 columns → 70.

Wait — but j and k are different?

Wait — no, j and k may be different.

Wait — actually, j is blue, and appears to be 6 columns.

k is brown, and appears to be 6 columns too?

Wait — maybe not. Let’s look at k again.

Wait — k has 6 columns shaded? Or only 6 rows?

No — in k, it looks like 6 full columns shaded → 60 squares.

But wait — perhaps k is 6 rows?

No — if it’s 6 rows, that would be 60 squares too.

But rows vs columns don’t matter — 60 squares = 60/100.

So regardless, 60 squares = 0.60.

But let’s confirm:

- j: Blue, 6 columns → 60 squares → 0.60
- k: Brown, 6 columns → 60 squares → 0.60
- l: Purple, 7 columns → 70 squares → 0.70

Yes, that matches.

But wait — l has 7 vertical bars, so 7 columns → 70 squares → 0.70
