What is the approximate probability that a point chosen insdie the rectangle is in the shaded region?

1st Shaded region: 2 m
1st Non-shaded region: 3 m
2nd shaded region: 1 m
2nd non-shaded region: 1 m
 
The side of the rectangle being 4 m
 
(All the sides are 4 m for every one of the shaded and non shaded regions)
 
A) 0.29
B) 0.43
C) 0.48
D) 0.53

Could you clarify the problem? What are the dimensions of the rectangle and what are the shapes of the shaded and non-shaded regions?

1st Shaded region: 2 m by 4m
1st Non-shaded region: 3 m by 4m
2nd shaded region: 1 m by 4m
2nd non-shaded region: 1 m by 4m
 
(all of the shaded and non shaded is in one rectangle, with the whole of the rectangle being 4 m down (its side being 4 m) the 2m, 3m, 1m, and 1m is all on the top
