Question

how do you find the scale factor of two triangles, 0.3 and 2.4?

Answer 1

Divide the larger one by the smaller one. 2.4 divided by 0.3 gives you 8. That means the scale factor is 8, or the larger triangle is 8 times larger than the smaller. We can prove this by multiplying 0.3 by 8 and getting 2.4
