a scale model ~aka~(Scale drawing) in math terms is - The process of drawing a figure either enlarged or reduced in size from its original size. Usually the scale is given, as on a map 1 inch equals 10 miles.----http://dpi.wi.gov/standards/mathglos.html
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.

Length of your lines in your drawing and the scale compared to real size.

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.

A drawing of the object in scale.

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.
