The figure, not drawn to scale, consists of 1 Square H and 1 Circle J whose areas are in the ratio of 2 : 1. Given that
18 of Square H is shaded, what fraction of Circle J is shaded?

Area of Square H is the repeated identity.
Shaded area of Square H is the same as the shaded area of Circle J.
LCM of 2 and 8 = 8
