What is 2/4?

400

If a figure has coordinates S (-4, -2), T (-3, 1) and U (-2, -2), what would the new coordinates be if it was dilated by 3, with (0,0) being the center of dilation?

What is S’ (-12, -6), T’ (-9, 3), and U’ (-6, -6)?

500

How will dilating a figure with a scale factor of 1/3 change a figure?

What is it will make the figure 3 times smaller from the center of dilation (or reduced/smaller figure)?
