The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle A and 1 Square B whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
313 of Rectangle A is shaded, what fraction of Square B is shaded?
Area of Rectangle A |
Area of Square B |
2x13 = 26 u |
1x13 = 13 u |

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 2 and 13 = 26
Fraction of Square B that is shaded
=
613 Answer(s):
613
