Hexagon PQRSTU is shown on the coordinate grid. Hexagon PQRSTU is dilated with the origin

as the center of the dilation using the rule (x, y) → ( 3 x, 3 y) to create hexagon P'Q'R'S'T'U'.

Which statement is true?

A) Hexagon P'Q'R'S'T'U' is smaller than hexagon PQRSTU because the scale factor is a fraction.

B) Hexagon P'Q'R'S'T'U' is smaller than hexagon PQRSTU because the scale factor is greater than one.

C) Hexagon P'Q'R'S'T'U' is larger than hexagon PQRSTU because the scale factor is greater than one.

D) Hexagon P'Q'R'S'T'U' is larger than hexagon PQRSTU because the scale factor is less than one.
