Sagot :

Yes, a dilation with a scale factor of 1/3 is a reduction.

Dilation

A dilation is an enlargement in size or a reduction in size of a mathematical object. We perform a dilation of a shape by placing the shape on a coordinate plane and multiplying each of the coordinates of the vertices of the shape by the same number, called the scale factor. This can also be achieved by multiplying the lengths of each of the sides of a shape by the scale factor.

A dilation is a reduction if the scale factor is between 0 and 1.
