To find the scale factor, we can divide the side length of the new square (20 units) by the side length of the original square (8 units).
Scale factor = new side length / original side length
Scale factor = 20 units / 8 units
Scale factor = 2.5
Therefore, the scale factor to dilate the square is 2.5 (in decimal form).
