Start with the area of the square.

Let s = side of square.

So, A = s^2.

A circle has a circumference.

C = 2πr

Perimeter of square = area of circle.

4s = 2πr

Solving for r, we get

4s/2π = r

2s/π = r

Ratio:

Area of square : area of circle

s^2 = πr^2

Above we solved for r. So, plug it in.

s^2 : π(2s/π)^2

s^2 : π(4s^2)/π^2

(s^2)/(4s^2)/π

(s^2) * π/(4s^2)

Answer: π/4
