Answer is 2/3 scale factor

Step by step

Divide the side of the image by the pre image.

Side x’ y’ is 12
Side x y is 18

12/18 simplified to 2/3

Check your work

Side x w = 12

12 * 2/3 = 8

x w is congruent to y z

So y’ z’ is 8 so they are the same after the dilation

So your answer is correct
