Answer:

  The projected image has dimensions 4 times those of the computer screen. The ratio is 1:4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the projected width to the computer screen width is ...

  (53 in)/(13.25 in) = 4

The ratio of heights is the same:

  (42.4 in)/(10.6 in) = 4

The linear dimensions of the projected image are 4 times those of the computer screen.

___

The way the question is written, you may be expected to write this 1 to 4 ratio as the fraction 1 : 4 or 1/4.
