For given question,

We have been given the unit conversion.

A traditional unit of length in Japan is the ken

and 1 ken = 1.97 m

We need to find the the ratios of (a) square kens to square meters.

First we find the square of 1 ken.

⇒ 1 square kens = (1.97 m)²

⇒ 1 square kens = 1.97 × 1.97 m²

⇒ 1 square kens = 3.88 m²                  ..................(1)

And 1 square meters = 1 m²                 ................. (2)

Now we take the ratio of square kens to square meters.

From (1) and (2),

⇒ 1 ken² / 1 m² = 3.88 / 1

⇒ 1 ken² / 1 m² = 3.88

Therefore, the ratios of (a) square kens to square meters (1 ken² / 1 m²) is 3.88
