So for these problems you just need to get all x values on one side of the equal sign. Since this has just an x and not other x values we can leave the x there on the left. Now subtract 5 on both sides to get rid of the 5 on left side of the equals sign. Subtract 5 on the right side too because anything that you do on the left side, you do on the right side as well. It should look like this now:

Let the scale factor be k.
Then, we have the mapping
This implies that:
We equate any corresponding component find the value of the scale factor k.
6k=2
Hence the scale factor is
