Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

Given that original coordinate is (9,6)

It is transformed into a new coordinate (3,2)

WE have to find the scale factor of transformation.

On observing, both the coordinates we find that both coordinates have x and y positive. Hence no reflection on either axis.

In both x coordinate is bigger than y coordinate. So no rotation about origin.

COmparison gives new coordinates are 1/3 of original coordinates

Hence scale factor of dilation = 1/3
