Scale factor is defined as a number which multiplies or scales some quantity.
The shape of the figure remains same, the image becomes larger or smaller.
If the scale factor is greater than one, then the image is enlarged.
If the scale factor is less than 1 but greater that 0, then the image becomes smaller.
In the above image, AD = 2 units.
It's corresponding side PS = 3 units
Similarly AB = 1 unit and PQ = 1.5 units
Hence , 1 * 1.5 = 1.5
2*1.5 = 3
Hence, the scale factor of the given image is 1.5 ... Answer
Answer:16:18
Step-by-step explanation:
125 = 5^3 = 25 * 5
The simplification you are trying to do involves finding the prime factorization of a number. Since 125 is not divisible by 2, move on to 3. 125 is also not divisible by 3, so move on to 5. Then 125/5 = 25, and 25/5 = 5, so 125 = 5^3. The prime factorization of 125 is 5^3.
7 people so first one shakes hand with the remaining people. that is 6
The 2nd person also shakes hand with 6 persons but we have already counted his handshake with first person. so we have to add 6-1 = 5 shakes for 2nd person
like wise 3rd person shakes hand with the remaining 6-2 = 4 people
4th person with 6-3=3 people
5th person with 6-4= 2 persons
6th person with 6-5=1 person
and 7th one with no one because already he has shaken his hand with everyone.
since these people shake their hands with others only once we just have to add the obtained values
6+5 +4+3+2+1= 21
totally 21 handshakes will be there in that room
