Worked solution

1. Determine the total number of stars and the number of shaded stars

Total stars = $15$
Shaded stars = $6$

2. Express the shaded stars as a fraction of the total stars

Fraction of shaded stars = $\frac{6}{15}$

3. Convert the fraction to a percentage

Percentage = $\frac{6}{15} \times 100\% = \frac{2}{5} \times 100\% = 40\%$
