The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle X and 1 Square Y whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
37 of Rectangle X is shaded, what fraction of Square Y is shaded?
Area of Rectangle X |
Area of Square Y |
2x7 = 14 u |
1x7 = 7 u |
Unshaded area |
Shaded area |

6 u |
Area of Rectangle X is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle X is the same as the shaded area of Square Y.
LCM of 2 and 7 = 14
Fraction of Square Y that is shaded
