(a)
A standard sheet of paper measures 8.5 by 13 inches. Find the area of one such sheet of paper in m.

(b)
A second sheet of paper is half as long and half as wide as the one described in part (a). By what factor is its area less than the area found in part (a)?

ANY help would be amazing. Thanks so much!

Do you know how to convert from inches to meters? Were you taught that in class?
