Step-by-step explanation:

To transform the figure we multiply all the measures by the scale factor. If the scale factor is 2, for example, the new figure will be twice bigger. If the scale factor is 1/2 -which is less than 1- the new figure will be half the size of the original figure. Therefore the image of a figure scaled by a scale factor less than one is a smaller figure

Answer:

C. a reduction
