Answer:
B. 16:49
Step-by-step explanation:
The area ratio is the square of the edge length ratio:
area ratio = (4:7)² = 4²:7² = 16:49
_____
It might help you to recall that area is the product of two linear dimensions if each is multiplied by 4/7, the resulting product will be multiplied by (4/7)².
A = LW
A' = (4/7L)(4/7W) = (4/7)²(LW) = (16/49)·A
