Figure KLMN and figure PQRS, shown below, are similar figures.

 

If KN = 3 cm, MN = 7 cm, RS = 14 cm, and PS = 6 cm, what is the scale factor of figure KLMN to figure PQRS?

The scale factor can be calculated by dividing the corresponding side lengths.

Scale factor = PS / KN = 6 / 3 = 2

Therefore, the scale factor of figure KLMN to figure PQRS is 2.

Option 2: 2
