Question

Scale Factor

As a word problem......
A playground is 15 cm wide. After dilation, it is 150 cm wide. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Answer 1

10

My Logic:

if im correct the scale playground is 15cm wide while the real playground is 150 cm wide. That means that the scale playground is 1/10 of the real one or 1/10 scale.

Hope the helps!
