Answer:factor of 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
prism were changed by a scale factor of 3
Suppose prism is rectangular in shape
So surface are is 
Where l=length
w=width
b=breadth
So new length,breadth and width is






So new surface area would change by a factor of 9
Hi there!
To solve this problem, we should first find the product of 3/8 and 16 and multiply the solution by 2/3.
Let's find the product first.
3/8 × 16 = 48/8
Simplify.
48/8 = 48 ÷ 8 = 6
Now, we find 2/3 of 6.
6 ÷ 3 × 2 = 2 × 2 = 4
So, your answer is 4.
Hope this helps!
