Two congruent squares, $ABCD$ and $PQRS$, have side length $15$. They overlap to form the $15$ by $25$ rectangle $AQRD$ shown. What percent of the area of rectangle $AQRD$ is shaded? 

$\textbf{(A)}\ 15\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 18\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 20\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 24\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 25$
The overlap length is $2(15)-25=5$, so the shaded area is $5 \cdot 15 =75$. The area of the whole shape is $25 \cdot 15 = 375$. The fraction $\dfrac{75}{375}$ reduces to $\dfrac{1}{5}$ or 20%. Therefore, the answer is $\boxed{ \textbf{(C)}\ \text{20} }$
