To measure a scale drawing, use a ruler to determine the lengths of the drawn dimensions. Once you have those measurements, apply the scale factor provided (e.g., 1 inch = 5 feet) to convert the drawing dimensions to actual dimensions. Multiply the measured lengths by the scale factor to find the real-world dimensions of the object. For instance, if a line in the drawing measures 3 inches and the scale is 1 inch = 5 feet, the actual dimension would be 3 inches × 5 feet/inch = 15 feet.
