PLEASE HELP I NEED HELP!!!!!! 30 POINTS

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The left side of Figure A is 6 units long

The left side of Figure B is 2 units long

6 * what = 2

Divide each side by 6

what = 2/6

what = 1/3

The scale factor is 1/3

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure A has a base of $6$ units.

Figure B has a base of $2$ units.

So, 6 * $x$ (the scaled factor) = 2 which simplified is $6x=2$.

Now, we divide 6 on both sides giving us $x = \frac{2}{6}$ which can be further simplified into $\frac{1}{3}$
