The length of the side of one square is 20cm, and the second is 0.5m. write down the ratio

The length of the side of one square is 20cm, and the second is 0.5m. write down the ratio of the area of the larger square to the area of the smaller one.

1. For the convenience of calculations, we express the lengths of the sides of the squares in the same units of measurement, for example, in centimeters. Then the side of the larger square will be:
0.5 m = 50 cm.
2. Now let us determine the area of the large and small squares by squaring their sides:
Small area = 20 cm * 20 cm = 400 cm2.
Large area = 50 cm * 50 cm = 2500 cm2.
3. Finally, we determine the ratio of the area of a larger square to a smaller one, we get:
2500/400 = 25/4 = 6.25.
Answer: The ratio of the area of the larger square to the smaller is 6.25.
