Jane has a 5 × 7-inch photograph that she wants enlarged to a 10 × 14-inch photograph. What is the scale factor from the original photograph to the enlarged photograph?

I think that the answer is 2, because if you multiply two by each factor in the original photograph then you get the size of the new photograph.
