The correct option is D 16
From the given figure,
Total number of blocks = 9
Shaded number of blocks = 7
=> Fraction of shaded region =numberofshadedblockstotalnumberofblocks =79
Now, we have fraction,
Numerator = 7
Denominator = 9
=> Sum of numerator and denominator = 7 + 9 = 16
Hence, sum of numerator and denominator from the fraction of shaded region is 16.
