What percentage of the board is black colored?

"\n

Given :

The figure of the black and white-colored board is given.

To do :

We have to find the percentage of the board which black colored.

Solution :

 Total number of boxes in the board $= 16$

Number of black colored boxes $= 8$

Percentage of the board which is black colored $= \frac{8}{16} \times 100$

                                                                                  $ = \frac{1}{2} \times 100$

                                                                                   $= \frac{100}{2} = 50$%

Therefore, the percentage of the board which black colored is 50%
