Answer:

To find the scale factor, all you have to do is divide a side value of one figure by its congruent side value on another figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start:

  • The values 15 and 10 are both for the same congreunt side --> EF and E'F'
  • The values 4 and 6 are both for the same congreunt side --> DE and D'E'
  • The values 4 and 6 are both for the same congreunt side --> DG and D'G'
  • The values 8 and 12 are both for the same congreunt side --> FG and F'G'

So, to find the scale factor, all you have to do is divide the smaller congruent value from the larger congruent value.

Larger congruent value ÷ smaller congruent value = scale factor

              15                      ÷                10                        = scale factor

              \____________________/

                                    1.5

So, the scale factor is 1.5

To double check, we will use another congruent side to find the scale factor:

12 ÷ 8 = scale factor

1.5      = scale factor

So, the scale factor is most definitely 1.5

I hope this helps!
