Drawing to scale means that you are either making a picture smaller or bigger because it might be to big to draw like a house so u make it smaller or really tiny like a bug so in-large it. For example: Say you have a small wallet sized picture but you want to put it on your wall You decide you want it to be 40 cm by 60 cm but it's only 4 cm by 6 cm, you put it to scale and use a grid to help keep track. Just remember this ratio for these numbers, 1:10

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.
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.

An underline on a dimension means that it is not to scale.
This means drawing something exact. For example, if in a test it was to say 'NOT drawn to scale' it would mean it isn't drawn correctly and wasn't reliable.
The scale on a drawing represents the ratio of the size of the drawing to the actual size of the object. It must be considered to ensure accurate measurements and proportions in the drawing. Using the correct scale helps convey the information clearly and allows others to interpret the drawing accurately.
The answer depends on what aspect of the scale drawing you wish to calculate.
It shows the constant of proportionality between the scale drawing and the real-life object.
it depends of the scale of the drawing
# 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 questions
Oh, what a delightful question! To find the scale of the drawing, we simply need to divide the height of the real giraffe (5.5 meters) by the height of the drawing (7 centimeters). This will give us the scale of the drawing, which in this case is 1:78. Isn't that just lovely? Just remember, there are no mistakes in art, only happy little accidents.
Scale provides the ability to measure a depicted feature or arrangement of features on the drawing, and scale it to what it was / will be in the real world. It is not always possible to dimension every possible feature, and a scaled drawing allows someone to infer what a given dimension will be.
