Scale factors

Scale factors are written as the ratio of measures of similar sides of a figure

From the given question, we have the following parameters

length of dining = 8 meters

Length in drawing = 4cm

Since the length in drawing the lower than that of real dining, the scale will be a  reduction

Scale factor = 4cm/8m

Scale factor = 4cm/800cm

Scale factor  = 1/200

Scale factor  = 0.005

Hence the drawing's scale factor is 0.005
