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

Area of Square M is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square M is the same as the shaded area of Circle N.
LCM of 3 and 14 = 42
Fraction of Circle N that is shaded
=
