The factor of its area less than the initial area is 1/4

How to determine the factor of its area less than the initial area?

The given parameters can be represented as:

Second sheet = 1/2 * The first sheet

Assume the sheet is rectangular, the area of the sheet is calculated as:

Area = Length * Width

So, the area of the second sheet is

Second sheet = 1/2Length * 1/2Width

This gives

Second sheet = 1/4(Length * Width)

So, we have:

Second sheet = 1/4 * First sheet

Hence, the factor of its area less than the initial area is 1/4
