Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It seems like you're describing a relationship involving a scale factor and the square root of 3. If we let "x" be the scale factor, we can express the relationship as an equation:
\[ \sqrt{3} \times x = 3 \]
To solve for the scale factor (\(x\)), you would divide both sides of the equation by \(\sqrt{3}\):
\[ x = \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} \]
To simplify this expression, you can multiply the numerator and denominator by \(\sqrt{3}\) to rationalize the denominator:
\[ x = \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} \]
This simplifies to:
\[ x = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{3} \]
Finally, the \(3\) in the numerator and denominator cancel out:
\[ x = \sqrt{3} \]
So, the scale factor is the square root of 3.
