To find the scale factor, you need to compare the corresponding sides of two similar figures. The scale factor is calculated by dividing the length of a side on the larger figure by the length of the corresponding side on the smaller figure. For example, if the larger figure has a side length of 8 units and the corresponding side on the smaller figure is 2 units, the scale factor would be 8 divided by 2, which equals 4.
A circle is a plane figure. A 'circular' solid figure would be a sphere.

The scale factor
The scale factor is the ratio of any side of the image and the corresponding side of the original figure.
You need information about a pre-image AND and image to work out a scale factor.
The scale factor is the number that the side lengths of one figure can be multiplied by to give the corresponding side lengths of the other figure.
