This figure shows five shaded circles within a circle of radius 7 units. The four small congruent shaded circles are tangent to the outer circle and to the large shaded circle. The radius of each of the smaller shaded circles is 1/5 the radius of the large shaded circle. What fraction of the largest circle's area is shaded? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Here is your pic, drawn to scale

the radius of the bigest circle is 7

the radius of the second biggest circle is 5

the radius of the little circles is 1

 

Now you can work out all the areas that are needed and find the fraction requested.
