The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Rectangle U and 1 Square V whose areas are in the ratio of 4 : 1. Given that
110 of Rectangle U is shaded, what fraction of Square V is shaded?
Area of Rectangle U |
Area of Square V |
4x5 = 20 u |
1x5 = 5 u |

2 u |
Area of Rectangle U is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Rectangle U is the same as the shaded area of Square V.
LCM of 4 and 10 = 20
Fraction of Square V that is shaded
