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

Area of Rectangle A is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle A is the same as the shaded area of Square B.
LCM of 4 and 13 = 52
Fraction of Square B that is shaded
=
