Answer:

1 : 2.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sign and the banner are similar, their ratio of length to width should be the same. Hence, 32/45 = 20/x, with x being the width of the school banner.

32/45 = 20/x

32x = 20*45

x = 900/32

x = 28.125 inches

Now, we can calculate the area of the school banner and the sign:

Area of school banner:

28.125 * 20 = 562.5 square inches

Area of sign:

32 * 45 = 1440 square inches

Hence, the ratio of the area of banner to the area of sign is:

562.5 : 1440

1 : 2.56

Hope this helped!
