A rectangular prism has a length of 4.2 cm, a width of 5.8 cm, and a height of 9.6 cm. A similar prism has a length of 14.7 cm, a width of 20.3 cm, and a height of 33.6 cm. The dimensions of the smaller prism are each multiplied by what factor to produce the corresponding dimensions of the larger prism?
