If the length of rectangle B and the width of rectangle A is one-half the width of rectangle B, what is the ratio of the area of rectangle A to the area of rectangle B?

Correct Answer: 2/1
Let length of rectangle B be L and width be HSo, for rectangle A, length = L/2 and width = H/2So, area of A/area of B = (L/2*H/2)/L*H = 1/4
