The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Square R and 1 Circle S whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
116 of Square R is shaded, what fraction of Circle S is shaded?

Area of Square R is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square R is the same as the shaded area of Circle S.
LCM of 2 and 16 = 16
