18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.

6 * scale factor = 120
6x = 120
x = 120/6
x = 20 <== the scale factor

60 inches would be the correct answer because 6 times 60 is equal to 120
