1. The problem asks for the scaling factor of 180. 2. A scaling factor is a number which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. 3. If the question is about scaling 180 by a factor, we need the factor value to calculate the scaled result. 4. Without a second number or context, the scaling factor of 180 alone is 1, meaning no change. 5. If you want to scale 180 by a factor $k$, the result is $180 \times k$. 6. For example, scaling 180 by 2 gives $180 \times 2 = 360$. 7. Please provide the second number or context to find the exact scaling factor.
