When a part is made by pressing together powdered metal, no metal is wasted. In contrast, metal is typically scrapped after a metal part is cut from a solid metal plate. If a circular part with a diameter of 10.0 cm is made from an original shape of a square with a side length of 10.0 cm, calculate the percentage of the metal that is thrown away as scrap. If the circular shape also has a circular hole with a diameter of 6.0 cm, calculate the percentage of the metal that is thrown away as scrap.
