To determine the scale factor, we need to compare the corresponding side lengths of the two parallelograms.
The length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram is given by 3.5 inches and 5 inches.
The length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram is given by 1 inch and 0.7 inches, respectively.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram by the length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram:
1/3.5 = 0.2857...
0.7/5 = 0.14
Therefore, the scale factor is approximately 0.14.
The length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram is given by 3.5 inches and 5 inches.
The length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram is given by 1 inch and 0.7 inches, respectively.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram by the length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram:

0.7 / 5 = 0.14
In this case, the scale factor is approximately 0.2857..., which is closer to 0.3. So the correct scale factor is 0.3.

I apologize for the confusion. To determine the scale factor using proportional relationships, we need to compare the corresponding side lengths of the two parallelograms.
The length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram is given by 3.5 inches and 5 inches.
The length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram is given by 1 inch and 0.7 inches, respectively.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the corresponding sides of the scaled parallelogram by the length of the corresponding sides of the original parallelogram:
1 / 3.5 ≈ 0.286
0.7 / 5 = 0.14
Based on the calculations above, the closest value to the scale factor is 0.14.
