The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle P and 1 Square Q whose areas are in the ratio of 3 : 1. Given that
311 of Rectangle P is shaded, what fraction of Square Q is shaded?

Area of Rectangle P is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle P is the same as the shaded area of Square Q.
LCM of 3 and 11 = 33
Fraction of Square Q that is shaded
