Solution

The correct option is C $\frac{1}{4}$
If $A O : A C : 1 : 3$
$\frac{A r e a o f △ A O B}{A r e a o f △ B O C} = \frac{1}{3}$
Let Area of $△ A O B = x$
$∴$ Area of $△ B O C = 3 x$
Area of $△ (A B C) = 4 x$
Area $△ A B C = △ A B D = 4 x$
$\frac{A r e a o f △ A O B}{A r e a o f △ A B D} = \frac{x}{4 x} = \frac{1}{4}$ .
Hence, option A is correct.
