Fractional Relations:
 
Let us understand this topic using the below example.
 
Here is the square with some lines

We need to find the fraction of a area of the whole square that is shaded.
 
Let the area of the whole square be \(1\) square unit.
 
From the figure we get, the top right square occupies \(\frac{1}{4}\) of the whole square.

Area of above top right square = \(\frac{1}{4}\) square units.
 
We can split the above square in this below way,

Area of yellow triangle \(= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{8} \text{square units}\)
 
The shaded region in the question occupies \(\frac{3}{4}\) space in yellow region
 
Thus the area of shaded region \(= \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{3}{32} \text{square units}\)
