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

Area of Square L is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square L is the same as the shaded area of Square M.
LCM of 2 and 11 = 22
Fraction of Square M that is shaded
=
811 Answer(s):
811
