1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's 1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Woo hoo! We got the same answer. XD @AhriStudent

OpenStudy (ahristudent):

Because if point B is 1,1 and point B' is 3,3, then its actually dilating by a scale factor of 3, not 1/3, my bad.

Okay! :)

OpenStudy (ahristudent):

Yeah I didn't realise the larger figure was prime xD so it is 3.
