Short Answer:
Earth is quite a lot larger than Mars.
Detailed Answer:
Here are the specific numbers that you can find on the NASA website.
1. Mars is about half the diameter of Earth.
Diameter of Earth is 12,756 kilometers.
Diameter of Mars is 6,792 kilometers.
Diameter ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756) = .532
2. The volume of Mars is about 15% (less than 1/6 th) of the volume of Earth.
Volume ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756)^3 = .150
3. Even for its size, the mass of Mars is even smaller, being just over one tenth the mass of Earth.
Mass of Earth is 5.97 x 10^24 kg.
Mass of Mars is .642 x 10^24 kg.
Mass ratio of Mars to Earth (.642/5.97) = .107
The data for all the planets and various moons is on the NASA website.
