Answer:


\text{ Less than 1}

Step-by-step explanation: We can see that the resulting figure which is F'G'H'E' has the Width and height both reduced to half:


\begin{gathered} W^(\prime)=(1)/(2)W \\ H^(\prime)=(1)/(2)H \end{gathered}

This means that it has the scale factor of:


F\mathrm{}S=(1)/(2)

Because all the dimensions are reduced by one half, therefore the answer is:


\text{ Less than 1}
