Example Question #1 : How To Find A Square On A Coordinate Plane
The above square has an area of square units. What fraction of the area of square is in quadrant II?
To find the fraction of the entire squares area that lays in quadrant II, notice that the square is taking up an equivalent amount in each of the four quadrants. Thus, of the squares area is in quadrant II.
Also note that the area of the square that lays in quadrant II is square units, thus the problem could have alternatively been solved by reducing
