two triangles EFG sides EG 15cm side FG 12 cm E'F'G' sides E'G' 11.25cm and side F'G' 9cm.
is the scale factor equal, larger or less than 1?

Compare corresponding side ratios:
E'G'/EG = 11.25/15 = 0.75
F'G'/FG = 9/12 = 0.75
Both ratios equal, so the triangles are similar. The scale factor (E F G → E' F' G') is 0.75 = 3/4, which is less than 1 (the image is smaller).
