It is not possible to determine the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle without the actual image or measurements of the rectangle before and after the enlargement.

To find the scale factor, we can divide the corresponding measurements of the enlarged rectangle by the measurements of the original rectangle.

The length of the enlarged rectangle is 3 inches, and the length of the original rectangle is 9 inches. So the scale factor for the length is 3/9 = 1/3 = 0.3333 (rounded to four decimal places).

The width of the enlarged rectangle is 5 inches, and the width of the original rectangle is 5.4 inches. So the scale factor for the width is 5/5.4 ≈ 0.9259 (rounded to four decimal places).

Since we want the overall scale factor, we take the average of the scale factors for the length and width:

(0.3333 + 0.9259) / 2 ≈ 0.6296

Therefore, the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle in the image is approximately 0.6296.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's try again:

The original rectangle measures 9 in × 5.4 in.

The enlarged rectangle measures 3 in × 5 in.

To find the scale factor, we can divide the corresponding measurements of the enlarged rectangle by the measurements of the original rectangle.

For the length, we have:

Scale factor for length = Enlarged length / Original length = 3 in / 9 in = 1/3

For the width, we have:

Scale factor for width = Enlarged width / Original width = 5 in / 5.4 in ≈ 0.9259

To find the overall scale factor, we can take the average of the scale factors for the length and width:

Overall scale factor = (Scale factor for length + Scale factor for width) / 2 = (1/3 + 0.9259) / 2 ≈ 0.419

Therefore, the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle in the image is approximately 0.419.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's calculate the scale factor again:

The original rectangle measures 9 in × 5.4 in.

The enlarged rectangle measures 3 in × 5 in.

To find the scale factor, we divide the corresponding measurements of the enlarged rectangle by the measurements of the original rectangle.

For the length, we have:

Scale factor for length = Enlarged length / Original length = 3 in / 9 in = 1/3 = 0.3333 (rounded to four decimal places).

For the width, we have:

Scale factor for width = Enlarged width / Original width = 5 in / 5.4 in ≈ 0.9259 (rounded to four decimal places).

Since we want the overall scale factor, we take the average of the scale factors for the length and width:

(0.3333 + 0.9259) / 2 ≈ 0.6296.

Therefore, the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle in the image is approximately 0.6296.

Apologies for the earlier confusion. As an AI language model, I don't have the ability to see or analyze images directly. Since you mentioned an image is involved, and I'm unable to access it, I won't be able to determine the scale factor for the enlargement based solely on the given information.

If you can provide additional details, such as the measurements of the original and enlarged rectangles or any other relevant information, I would be happy to assist you further with finding the scale factor.
