The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle D and 1 Square E whose areas are in the ratio of 4 : 1. Given that
114 of Rectangle D is shaded, what fraction of Square E is shaded?

Area of Rectangle D is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle D is the same as the shaded area of Square E.
LCM of 4 and 14 = 28
