The measurements are

1. 4unit by 4 unit

2. 6 unit by 2 unit

3. 5 units by 3 units

4. 1 units by 7 units

To arrange the area from the largest to the smallest we have to compute the area of the measurements.


\begin{gathered} \text{area = lw} \\ \text{area}=\text{ 4}*4=16units^2 \\ \text{area}=\text{ 6}*2=12units^2 \\ \text{area}=\text{ 5}*3=15units^2 \\ \text{area}=\text{ 1}*7=7units^2 \end{gathered}

The arrangement from highest to smallest is represented as follows

4units by 4 units

5 units by 3 units

6 units by 2 units

1 unit by 7 units
