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
