Answer:

The scale factor from the original triangle to the image is 1/2.  The scale factor from the image to the original is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I make a sketch of the information.  Look at the corresponding sides.  Side AC on the big triangle is 8 and A'C' is 4.  It is half of the size of the large triangle.  That is true for each pair of sides.

If I went the other way, the original sides are twice as big as the images sides.
