Answer:

  • The scale factor is 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

As per definition, the scale factor is:

The ratio between corresponding measurements of an object and a representation of that object.

  • [tex]k = d_n/d_o[/tex]

Where, k - scale factor, [tex]d_n[/tex] - dimension of the new shape, [tex]d_o[/tex] - dimension of the original shape.

The scale factor in our case is:

  • k = 0.75/1.75 = (3*0.25)/(7*0.25) = 3/7
