AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a comprehensive geometric and algebraic diagram demonstrating percentages. Start with a square, subdivided into a grid with tick marks. Above the square, draw a horizontal number line from 0 to 100 with labeled ticks. Below the number line, place a rectangle divided into 100 vertical strips, with a portion shaded to represent a percentage. Next to it, draw a circle with a sector highlighted to show the same percentage, and label the angle. Also include an ellipse to illustrate the relationship between percentages and geometric shapes. Finally, add arrows and labels to explain the connections between the parts.
