LaTeX2HTML has various mechanisms for applying graphics effects
to individual images; e,g, using the \htmlimage command, from  html.sty.

Alternatively, you can try simple things like:
 $\displaystyle \sigma =\frac{F_r}{A_o}$
or
 \mbox{\scalebox{1.5}{$\sigma =\frac{F_r}{A_o}$}}
or
\(\scalebox{1.5}{$\sigma =\frac{F_r}{A_o}$\)

to get the enlarged size captured within an image.


The question must be asked of "why" are you using \scalebox{1.5}
with inline mathematics ?
How does this add to the meaning to be conveyed by your manuscript?
If it is simply that the \frac is too small, then you should be
using \displaystyle, or \dfrac (from  amsmath.sty).
