it means that it is drawn to match a specific measurement
ex. 1 inch on a scale on a map is 1 mile
The ratio betwee a measurement on the map and a measurement in the real world.
The map scale often will show distance in both miles and kilometers. In that way, the map is useful no matter what measure the person normally employs.
A large-scale map shows much more detail. For example - a 1:1000 map will show twice as much detail as a 1:2000 one. The higher the number - the smaller the scale is.

The scale printed on a map will show distances on the map and on the ground. For instance: a map with a scale of 1:50000 (1 in 50,000) means that 1 centimetre measured on the map represents 50,000 centimetres on the ground.

A legend
So you know what distance equals a mile which varies map to map.
A map scale is very useful for providing a visual idea of the distance from location to another on the map. The scale is made smaller to show a comparison to the actual size in distance.
