A'BC' is a dilation of ABC.

Answer:4

Explanation:

dilation

In a plane, a transformation in which each point on the image lies on the same line as the corresponding point on the preimage and a fixed point called the center of dilation; the ratio between the distance from the center of dilation to a point on the image and the distance from the center of dilation to the corresponding point on the preimage remains constant.
