Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for scale factor

Scale factor \(=\frac{\text{Dimension of figure A}}{\text{Dimension of figure B}}\)

Step2: Choose a corresponding dimension

Let's use the length. For figure A, length \(l_A = 4\). For figure B, length \(l_B=8\)

Step3: Calculate the scale factor

Scale factor \(=\frac{l_A}{l_B}=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}\)

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{2}\)
