Solution Steps

Step 1: Find the dimensions of Figure A

The height of Figure A is 6 units and the base is 8 units.

Step 2: Find the dimensions of Figure B

The height of Figure B is 3 units and the base is 4 units.

Step 3: Calculate the scale factor

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is the ratio of corresponding side lengths of Figure B to Figure A.

Scale factor = (Height of Figure B) / (Height of Figure A) = 3/6 = 1/2

Scale factor = (Base of Figure B) / (Base of Figure A) = 4/8 = 1/2

Final Answer

\\(\boxed{1/2}\\)
