The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Square W and 1 Circle X whose areas are in the ratio of 4 : 1. Given that
215 of Square W is shaded, what fraction of Circle X is shaded?

Area of Square W is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square W is the same as the shaded area of Circle X.
LCM of 4 and 15 = 60
Fraction of Circle X that is shaded
