First, note that 1 m =100 cm.

Then

  • 5 m = 500 cm;
  • 3 m = 300 cm.

If Elena wants to make a scale drawing of her bedroom on a scale of 1 to 50, then

  • 500 cm : 50  = 10 cm;
  • 300 cm : 50  = 6 cm.

Therefore, the length of the scale drawing is 10 cm and the width of the scale drawing is 6 cm.
