The mm scale is used for making furniture, not the cm scale. The cm scale is not precise enough for joints. The cm scale is adequate for marketing furniture because in most cases its positioning does not need to be that precise.

If I am photocopying a rectangle that is 8 cm x 10 cm what scale factor do I use if I wanted to become 16 cm x 20 cm?

To determine the scale factor for enlarging a rectangle from 8 cm x 10 cm to 16 cm x 20 cm, divide the dimensions of the larger rectangle by the dimensions of the smaller rectangle. For the width, 16 cm ÷ 8 cm = 2, and for the height, 20 cm ÷ 10 cm = 2. Therefore, the scale factor you would use is 2.

What is the scale factor of 3 cm and 5 cm?

The scale factor between two lengths is found by dividing one length by the other. In this case, if we take the lengths of 3 cm and 5 cm, the scale factor can be calculated as 3 cm / 5 cm = 0.6. This means that 3 cm is 0.6 times the length of 5 cm. Conversely, the scale factor from 5 cm to 3 cm would be 5 cm / 3 cm, which equals approximately 1.67.

If 1 cm on a map represents 25000 cm on the ground the scale of the map is?

The scale of the map can be expressed as a ratio or fraction. Since 1 cm on the map represents 25,000 cm on the ground, the scale is 1:25,000. This means that every 1 cm measured on the map corresponds to 25,000 cm in reality.

Would a map that covers a large area have the same map scale as a map that covers a small region how would the scales deffer?

It could have, but the map of the small region would be very small. The map of the large area would more likely have a larger scale so that more area is covered on the same map area, but in doing so, it will be less detailed than the map of the smaller area with the smaller scale. A larger scale has many more cm in the real world equals 1 cm on the map than a smaller scale one. eg a map for walking could use 1:25,000 (1 cm = 25,000 cm → 1 cm = 0.25 km) whereas the "map" of a room would more likely use a smaller scale of 1:50 (1 cm = 50 cm → 1 cm = 0.5 m)
