The cross-sections of wires made of the same material and having the same length are shown in the figure. What can be said about their resistances?

$A$ wire of resistance $R$ and radius $r$ is stretched until its radius becomes $r / 2$. If the new resistance of the stretched wire is $x R$,then the value of $x$ is $\qquad$

$A$ conducting wire has length $L_1$ and diameter $d_1$. After stretching,the same wire's length becomes $L_2$ and diameter $d_2$. The ratio of resistance before and after stretching is:
