The true statement is (b) It is a reduction because 0 < n < 1.

How to determine the true statement?

The scale factor of dilation is given as:

n = 1/3

When the scale factor (n) is between 0 and 1, then the dilation is considered reduction or compression;

Otherwise, the dilation is considered enlargement or stretch

Because n is between 0 and 1, then the dilation is a reduction

Hence, the true statement is (b) It is a reduction because 0 < n < 1.
