What does reduce mean and which scale factor could be an example of a reduction?

The scale factor describes the size of an enlargement or reduction. For example, a scale factor of means that the new shape is twice the size of the original. Reduce means to make smaller, to lessen a amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of a scale factor of reduction is 1:25

Enlarging scale means that the drawing is larger than the actual object. Hence the representative fraction will be greater than unity. For reducing scale the representative fraction is less than unity.

So now looking at 1:25, we see it's a reduction scaling because it's fraction is less than unity.

And what 1:25 means is that 1 on paper while the actual size of the object is 25

i think that you should ask google for the answer to that problem because if we don't know it google does
