Answer:

The size of the font would be 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of a font can be expressed as follows:

font size = (height of the font in inches)/(point)

A point has a size of 1/72 inches, If Esmeralda wants the texto on the title to be 1/2inch tall, we could use the formula:

$font size = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{72}}\\\\font size = \frac{1*72}{2*1} \\\\font size = 36$
