In the figure, $\triangle ABC$ has $\angle A =45^{\circ}$ and $\angle B =30^{\circ}$. A line $DE$, with $D$ on $AB$ and $\angle ADE =60^{\circ}$, divides $\triangle ABC$ into two pieces of equal area. (Note: the figure may not be accurate; perhaps $E$ is on $CB$ instead of $AC$.) The ratio $\frac{AD}{AB}$ is
