    Answer:

    Ratio is 100:1

    Explanation:

    From hydraulic press formulas;

    (F1/A1) = (F2/A2)

    Applying this to the question, we can say that Force on slave cylinder (Fs) = F1 while Force on master cylinder (Fm) = F2 and their respective Areas as As and Am.

    Now plugging it into the equation to obtain;

    Fs/As = Fm/Am

    Now, the question says the hydraulic system is designed to exert a force 100 times as big as the one put into it, thus;

    Fs = 100 Fm

    And so from the equation earlier, rearranging, we have,

    Fs/Fm = As/Am. So, 100Fm/Fm = As/Am

    So, Fm will cancel out and we have ;

    As/Am = 100/1

    Thus, the ratio of the area of the slave cylinder to the master cylinder is 100:1
