Answer:

The scale factor is [tex]0.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional , and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z----> the scale factor

x ----> the corresponding side of the resulting image

y-----> the corresponding side of the first rectangle

[tex]z=\frac{x}{y}[/tex]

we have

[tex]x=1.5\ units[/tex]

[tex]x=6\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]z=\frac{1.5}{6}=0.25[/tex]

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

z=\frac{1.5}{6}=0.25
