Figure 1 is dilated to get Figure 2. What is the scale factor? Enter your answer as a fraction, in simplified form, in the box.

Answer 1

The answer 2 this problem is 1/6

Answer 2

This is the concept of scale factors, if figure 1 was dilated to figure 2 the scale factor was given by;
scale factor=[length of figure 2]/[length of figure 1]
length of figure 1=18
length of figure 2 =3
thus;
The scale factor of the dilation will be:
3/18
=1/6
