Answer:1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Original length of square is 6

Also scaled copy has side length of 5

So using unitary method to find the correct scaling

6 unit of square is equivalent to 5 units of scaled copy

Thus 1 unit of copy is equivalent to  1.2 units of square length

So in final answer we need to multiply by a factor of 1.2 to  get the original square length dimensions.
