    Answer: 1:4

    It doesn't matter what the original side lengths were. If both dimensions are divided by 2, (halved) the Area of the new square will be 1/4 the Area of the original square.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    But to prove it: 27*27 = 729.

    27/2 = 13.5. 13.5 * 13.5 = 182.25

    729/182.25 = 4. or 182.25/729 = 0.25
