Answer 1

1/2

Explanation:

edge 23

Answer 2

0.5

Explanation:

well you can just take one of the sides and in this case I'll use AC which originally is 8 and then in AC prime it's 4. You can simply divide the new length by the original length which is 4/8 or 0.5. So if you multiply any of the original side lengths by 0.5 you'll get the new side length.
