Your bakery is located in a large shopping center. The intire shopping center is 4,500 square feet. Your bakery takes up 1/10 of that space. How many aquear feet is your bakery.

Your bakery is 450 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If our bakery is 1/10 of a 4,500 square feet shopping plaza then it is also 10% of that shopping plaza since one-tenth of an object is the same as ten percent of that object.

To find a percentage of a number, we can simply multiply that percentage in decimal form by the number!

Here's what it looks like:

.10 * 4,500 = 450

This is also the same as dividing 4500 by 10!
