Models that are 1/48 scale can easily be measured by using the following:

1/4 of an inch on the model = 1 foot on the real thing

1 inch on the model = 4 feet on the real thing

etc.

Of what? A car? A ship?

Scale of 1/35 means the size of the model would be the dimensions of the Real Item divided by 35.
A 6-Foot man would be modeled as 2 inches. [ (6 X 12 ) / 35) ]

The classic model cars (plastic, static models) are 1/35. So this scale was commonly used by plastic model Army Tanks and the men that go with them. The 1/32 scale models seemed to have been introduced with airplanes, which is very close to the same size as 1/35 scale.

A 1/35 scale model of a typical 1960's car would be roughly 7 Inches long.

For comparison, 1/48 Scale or "Quarter Inch Scale" means 1 inch of the model equals 1 Foot. This is a common scale for model aircraft. A model of 1/48 scale would be smaller than the 1/35 scale.

54mm Figures

For many years, toy soldiers were described in a different manner than a scale. A figure that was 54mm meant that the soldier measures 54 millimeters from the base of the figure to its eyes. It was not measure to the top of the head as most toy soldiers had hats that could be big or small and change the height of the figure.

A 54mm figure is very close to 1/35 scale and would be about 2 inches tall. Other sizes used for military figures are 90mm, 120mm and 200mm. Sizes of figures used by wargammers are 25mm, 15mm and even 10mm.
