First thing you have to do is divide up the 3 columns on the right so that all of the squares are the same size. (I did that in black, you can see it on the picture I attached). Then total all of the little squares. I did this in red, and got 50. Now just count up how many of the lighter colored squares you have, I highlighted them in yellow on my picture. I got 14 light squares. So you end up with fourteen light squares out of 50 total squares, which is 14/50. *apologizes for the bad handwriting on the image I did it on phone. If that didn’t help just comment and let me know what’s still unclear.
