# 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.
To find the ratio of the length of a shape to its perimeter, you would divide the length by the perimeter. For example, if the length of a rectangle is 4 units and its perimeter is 12 units, the ratio would be 4/12 or 1/3. This ratio represents the proportion of the length to the total distance around the shape.
The ratio of the length of the side in the big triangle to the length of the corresponding side in the little triangle is the scale factor.
The ratio of the volumes of similar solids is (the ratio of their linear dimensions)3 .
