Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{500}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by converting 5 meters to centimeters. Note 1 meter = 100 centimeters.

We can set up a unit converter:

$5m(\frac{100cm}{1m})$

The meters cancel out leaving us with:

$5*100cm=500cm$

The scale factor is:

$\frac{drawing}{real\ life}=\frac{3cm}{500cm}=\frac{3}{500}$
