Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Grid and Unit

The large grid represents one whole unit, and each rectangle within the grid represents 1/10 or one-tenth of the unit.

Step 2: Identifying the Shaded Area

The problem requires us to outline the area that represents 0.6. Since each rectangle is 1/10, we need to shade 6 rectangles to represent 0.6 (because 0.6 is equivalent to 6/10).

Step 3: Writing the Fraction

The fraction with a denominator of 10 that is equivalent to the shaded area is 6/10.
