• Choice C

    ABC\triangle ABC is isosceles with ABCB\overline{AB} \cong \overline{CB}.

    DD, EE, HH are midpoints of AB\overline{AB}, CB\overline{CB}, AC\overline{AC}. FF, GG are midpoints of DH\overline{DH}, EH\overline{EH}.

    By the midpoint triangle theorem, DEH\triangle DEH has 14\frac{1}{4} the area of ABC\triangle ABC.

    FGH\triangle FGH has 14\frac{1}{4} the area of DEH\triangle DEH.

    Area of ABCArea of FGH=11/16=16:1\frac{\text{Area of } \triangle ABC}{\text{Area of } \triangle FGH} = \frac{1}{1/16} = 16:1
