The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 2 squares M and N whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
511 of Square M is shaded, what fraction of Square N is shaded?
Area of Square M |
Area of Square N |
2x11 = 22 u |
1x11 = 11 u |
Unshaded area |

Area of Square M is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square M is the same as the shaded area of Square N.
LCM of 2 and 11 = 22
Fraction of Square N that is shaded
=
