R = 1 2 × 1 6 = 1 9 2
R G = 6 2 5
G = R × 6 2 5
G = 1 9 2 × 6 2 5 = 8 0 0
G + R = 1 9 2 + 8 0 0 = 9 9 2
Red area = 1 2 × 1 6 = 1 9 2
Green area = 1 9 2 × 6 2 5 = 8 0 0
Total = 1 9 2 + 8 0 0 + 9 9 2

Let the entire rectangle have side lengths x and y . The required ratio above can be expressed as:
1 2 ⋅ 1 6 x y − 1 2 ⋅ 1 6 = 6 2 5 ;
or 1 9 2 x y = 6 2 5 + 1 ;
or x y = 1 9 2 ( 6 3 1 ) = 9 9 2 .
