Answer:

A. [tex] \frac{1}{5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor of dilation is the ratio of the length of any of the corresponding sides of rectangle R'S'T'Q to rectangle PQRS.

R'S' = 3

RS = 15

Thus,

Scale factor = [tex] \frac{R'S'}{RS} = \frac{3}{15} [/tex]

Simplify

Scale factor = [tex] \frac{1}{5} [/tex]
