Triangle $AHI$ is equilateral. We know $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{DE}$ and $\overline{FG}$ are all parallel to $\overline{HI}$ and $AB = BD = DF = FH$. What is the ratio of the area of trapezoid $FGIH$ to the area of triangle $AHI$? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Triangle $AFG$ is similar to triangle $AHI$, and  \[
\frac{AF}{AH}=\frac{3\cdot AB}{4\cdot AB}=\frac{3}{4}.
\] It follows that the ratio of the area of $\bigtriangleup AFG$ to the area of $\bigtriangleup AHI$ is $\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2=\frac{9}{16}$.  Since $\bigtriangleup AFG$ takes up $\frac{9}{16}$ of the area of $\bigtriangleup AHI$, trapezoid $FGIH$ takes up the other $\frac{7}{16}$ of the area.  More formally,  \begin{align*}
[AFG]+[FGIH]&=[AHI] \implies \\
\frac{[AFG]}{[AHI]}+\frac{[FGIH]}{[AHI]}&=1 \implies \\
\frac{[FGIH]}{[AHI]}&=1- \frac{[AFG]}{[AHI]} \\
&=1-\frac{9}{16} \\
&=\boxed{\frac{7}{16}}.
\end{align*}
