The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Square J and 1 Circle K whose areas are in the ratio of 3 : 1. Given that
14 of Square J is shaded, what fraction of Circle K is shaded?

Area of Square J is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square J is the same as the shaded area of Circle K.
LCM of 3 and 4 = 12
