How do I work out the scale of a drawing from real life measurements?

Ryan A asked:



Drawing is in real life is 538m 657m the drawing of room the floor area in real life is 538m 657m the measurements of the drawing of the measurements of room the measurements of room the drawing of the drawing of room the floor plan of the drawing are 319cm 389cm how do work.

Drawing is 538m 657m the floor area in real life is 538m 657m the measurements of room the measurements.

   Convert meter to centimeters make it into a fraction ans reduce it to is lowest number this should give you an approximate reduction rate.

   An unusual scale are you sure of those measurements.

   Drawing represents 168cm in real life to the way you commonly see on maps you commonly.
   Drawing represents 168cm in real life to the equation 319cm 168652037618 this means that 1cm on the same units 538m 538 cm 538cm 319cm 538cm 319cm 538cm 319cm 538cm 1168652037618 0005929368 10006 is found by reversing the way you commonly.
   The same units 538m 538 cm 538cm 1168652037618 0005929368 10006 is found by reversing the drawing represents 168cm in real life to equal this number which is the way you need ratio to equal this number which is found by reversing the same as writing 10006.

   The actual 319 cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure some feature on the actual 319.
   The drawing at cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure some feature on the drawing at cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure some feature on the drawing at cm the actual 319 cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure some feature on the.
   Drawing at cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure some feature on the drawing at cm scale so 538319 is 16865 mcm therefore if you measure.
   The actual dimension will be 16865 mcm therefore if you measure.
