Explanation:

Step1: Recall scale - factor formula

The scale factor is the ratio of the length on the model or drawing to the corresponding length in real - life. If the length on the drawing is $l_1$ and the length in real - life is $l_2$, the scale factor $k=\frac{l_1}{l_2}$. Here, assume the two lengths are $l_1 = 1$ cm and $l_2 = 3$ cm.

Step2: Calculate the scale factor

$k=\frac{1}{3}$

Answer:

c. $1/3$
