The diagram below shows $\vartriangle ABC$ with point $D$ on side $\overline{BC}$. Three lines parallel to side $\overline{BC}$ divide segment $\overline{AD}$ into four equal segments. In the triangle, the ratio of the area of the shaded region to the area of the unshaded region is $\frac{49}{33}$ and $\frac{BD}{CD} = \frac{m}{n}$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.
