Step-by-step explanation:

  • We already know that Figure A is the pre-image and Figure B is the image. Since the image is smaller than the pre-image, the scale factor will be less than 1.
  • We also know that the pre-image is three times greater than the image. Since the scale factor is less than 1, 3 will go in the denominator.

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is 1/3.
