Answer:
The scale factor is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is calculated using the formula
[tex]k=\frac{|P'Q'|}{|PQ|}[/tex]
We use the absolute value method to find the corresponding lengths,
Each box is 0.5 units.
[tex]k=\frac{|3.5-2|}{|6-2|}[/tex]
[tex]k=\frac{1.5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]k=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
