Write the decimal represented by each model.

There are 100 squares in the grid.

63 are shaded.

Number of squares shaded is the numerator (number on top of the decimal).

Total number of squares is the denominator (number at the bottom of the decimal).

Whenever the denominator of the fraction is 100, you can just take the numerator and put a decimal behind the number.

Therefore, the decimal represented would be 0.63.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
