Solution:
we are given that
Rectangle M was dilated to form rectangle M’.
we have been asked to find
What ratio is the scale factor?
we can find the required ratio by dividing the corresponding sides of the given rectangles as below:
[tex] Ratio=\frac{6}{4}=\frac{2}{4/3}\\
\\
[/tex]
[tex] Ratio=\frac{3}{2}=\frac{6}{4} \\
\\
\
Ratio=\frac{3}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\\ [/tex]
Hence the required ratio is 3/2.
