Answer:

the scale factor is 2

Explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the scale factor is equal to the ratio of its corresponding sides

so

Let

z-----> the scale factor


(A'B')/(AB)=(A'D')/(AD)

substitute the values


(4)/(2)=(6)/(3)


2=2 ----> is true

therefore

the rectangles are similar and the scale factor is 2
