Assuming you want the fractional part of the area, ....
area of whole paper = 9*12 inches^2 = 108 inches^2
area of typed section = 7*9 = 63 inches^2
typed section / whole sheet = 63/108 = 7/12
area of whole paper = 9*12 inches^2 = 108 inches^2
area of typed section = 7*9 = 63 inches^2
typed section / whole sheet = 63/108 = 7/12
