• 1/10 means the bar is divided into 10 equal parts and one of them is shaded.
• 1 and 10 share no common factor bigger than 1, so 1/10 is already in its simplest form.
• To turn 1/10 into a decimal, divide the top by the bottom: 1 ÷ 10 = 0.1. Multiply that by 100 for the percentage, 10%.
• The unshaded part is 9/10, because 1/10 and 9/10 add up to one whole.
