Chart question

Please help me solve this question. GSP Navigation, Chap 8

Q 8: On a transverse Mercator based on the 40E Meridian, the scale error at 80N 130E would be:

a) 1.5% too small
b) 1.5% too large
c) 0.985
d) 1.015

The correct answer give in (b), but I have no clue how to get to it.

Thanks
