Realise that the two squares are identical and the two rectangles are identical.

AB and DE are equal to the length of a square so AB and DE = 2cm

Area of upper shaded triangle

= ½ x 2cm x 3cm
= 3cm²

Area of lower shaded triangle

= ½ x 2cm x 3cm
= 3cm²

Total shaded area = 3cm² + 3cm²
= 6cm²

Length of rectangle ACEF
= CD + DE
= 3cm + 2cm
= 5cm

Breadth of rectangle ACEF
= AB + BC
= 2cm + 2cm
= 4cm

Area of ACEF
= 5cm x 4cm
= 20cm²

Fraction of rectangle that is shaded
= 6/20
= 3/10
