The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle F and 1 Square G whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
316 of Rectangle F is shaded, what fraction of Square G is shaded?
Area of Rectangle F |
Area of Square G |
2x8 = 16 u |
1x8 = 8 u |

Area of Rectangle F is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle F is the same as the shaded area of Square G.
LCM of 2 and 16 = 16
