∙ 13y agoTake the 'reciprocal' of the given scale factor to go the other way.
The 'reciprocal' of a number is 1/(the number).
3 ==> 1/3
5 ==> 1/5
1/7 ==> 7
2/3 ==> 3/2
etc.

The scale factor between two similar shapes is the ratio of the dimensions of one (often the smaller) compared with the dimension of the other (the larger).
Each linear dimension is altered by a multiple which is the scale factor.
It is 21/23.
You need information about a pre-image AND and image to work out a scale factor.
The two scale factors are reciprocals of one another.

At a scale of 1.8 to 1, the corresponding length on the smaller figure is 6 2/3 cm (6.66 cm) 12 cm is approximately 1.8 times 6.66 cm
The number used to multiply the lengths of a figure to create a larger or smaller similar image is called the scale factor. It is a ratio that represents the proportional relationship between the corresponding sides of two similar figures.
To find the scale factor of two triangles, look first for one pair of corresponding sides--one side from the smaller triangle and the corresponding side from the larger triangle. Divide the larger side length by the smaller side length, and that quotient is your scale factor.
The scale factor between two similar shapes is the ratio of the dimensions of one (often the smaller) compared with the dimension of the other (the larger).
Assuming the smaller sphere is the image of the larger sphere after transformation (based on the order of the radii): the scale factor is 4/12 = 1/3
