~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From QT:TU = 4:1 we conclude that the area of triangle PTU is 1/5
of the area of triangle PQU.
From UW:WP = 3:1 we conclude that the area of triangle PWT is 1/4
of the area of triangle PTU.
Combining these two facts, we conclude that the area of triangle PWT is
=
of the area of triangle PQU.
ANSWER. The area of triangle PWT is of the area of triangle PQU.
