    Let the line x+y=1x + y = 1 meet the axes of xx and yy at AA and BB, respectively. A right angled triangle AMN is inscribed in the triangle OABOAB, where OO is the origin and the points M and N lie on the lines OB and ABAB, respectively. If the area of the triangle AMN is 49\frac{4}{9} of the area of the triangle OABOAB and AN:NB=λ:1AN:NB = \lambda:1, then the sum of all possible value(s) of λ\lambda is :
