The scale.
The scale factor.
It's called the "scale."
A drawing that shows a real object with accurate sizes reduced or enlarged by a certain amount (called the scale). The scale is shown as the length in the drawing, then a colon (":"), then the matching length on the real thing.
To determine the length of the object in the drawing, use the scale of 3 inches for every 4 feet. First, find the ratio of the actual length to the scale length: ( 24 \text{ ft} \div 4 \text{ ft} = 6 ). Then, multiply this ratio by the scale length: ( 6 \times 3 \text{ in} = 18 \text{ in} ). Therefore, the length of the object in the drawing is 18 inches.
Drawing of object with only length and breadth
The scale factor.
The scale factor of a scale drawing is the ratio of any length in the drawing to the true corresponding length in the "real" object.

The scale indicates how many units of length of the actual object are represented by each unit of length in the drawing.
Drawing of object with only length and breadth
It is a scale drawing
correct
It is called a sketch or detailed drawing
The rate that describes how much smaller or larger a scale drawing is compared to the real object is called the scale factor. It is expressed as a ratio, typically in the form of "1:x," where "1" represents a unit on the drawing and "x" represents the corresponding units in the real object. For example, a scale factor of 1:100 means that 1 unit on the drawing equals 100 units in reality. This helps in understanding the proportionate size difference between the drawing and the actual object.
Divide any length of any part of one of the objects to the length of the corresponding part of the other object.
