Fraction of the shaded portion in the first figure
\n\n
We have to have an equivalent fraction so that we can shade the second figure which will inturn be equal to the fraction of the first figure.
\n\n
The total number of boxes in the second figure .
\n\n
Lets try using each of the option given to find out if the answer comes out.
\n\n
First, , when we simplify it is not equal to . Therefore, it is not the answer.
\n\n
here, if we simplify, we get it equal to which is same as the fraction of the first figure.
\n\n
Therefore, is the answer.
