Not all drawings are done to scale, sketches of buildings and people for instance. However if it is a technical drawing the draughtsman/woman will state on the drawing the scale used.
A scale drawing makes it easier to visualize and work with objects of systems that are very large or very small. The key decision is determining the scale, i.e., the ratio between the dimensions of the object and the scale drawing.
The answer depends on what aspect of the scale drawing you wish to calculate.
# is the ratio of the demensions in the drawing to the corresponding actual dimensions. The scale factor for a scale drawing is the ratio of the dimensions in the drawing to the corresponding acual bimensions.

Scale is how much smaller(or bigger) the drawing is compared to the real object. It'd be real awkward if you were drawing a house to have to make the drawing as big as the house would be. But for the drawing to work out you need to know how to translate between the drawing and reality - so you decide something. Scale 1:12 for instance would mean that something that's one inch in the drawing would be one foot in reality.

It shows the constant of proportionality between the scale drawing and the real-life object.
