उत्तर

Let the diameter of the earth is d then, diameter of moon will be `d/4`

Radius of earth =`d/2`

Radius of moon = `2/4=d/8`

S.A of moon = `4πr(d/8)^2`

Surface area of earth = `4πr(d/2)^2`

Required ratio = `(4πr(d/8)^2)/(4πr(d/2)^2) = 4/64=1/16`

Thus, the required ratio of the surface areas is `1/16`.
