Answer:
Explanation:
I'm going to guess that 1/2 the size means the sides are 1/2 the size.
Square 1 has an area of 24. The sides are s, so the area is found by using s^2
The second square is made from sides that are 1/2 s
Area = 1/2 s * 1/2 s
Area = 1/4 s^2
Area 1 / area 2 = 24 / x^2 = s^2 / 1/4 s^2 = 1/0.25
