Answer:

Finn is correct

Explanation:

When a figure is dilated to create a larger image, the scale factor will be greater than one, but just because a number is a fraction doesn't necessarily mean that it is less than one. For example, the scale factor could have been 5/4 and that is just as possible as any other whole number. (Even so, it depends on what you're learning. Sometimes when teachers introduce fractions they define it as a number smaller than one, but you can always use the 5/4 example to explain your answer if this is the case for you)

i hope this answer helped you! please lmk if i made a mistake :)
