What is the scale factor from 8 to 2?

OpenStudy (nikato):

So what's 8/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would the scale factor be -4

OpenStudy (nikato):

No. You would keep it as a fraction or ratio So 8/2=4/1 Usually scale factors are written as ratios So 4:1

OK, thanks for your help. I wasn't sure, but now I am.
