How to use architect (USA), engineer(USA) and metric scales?
Task: draw horizontal lines to scales or sizes indicated.
1. Architect scale:
a. 4 9"/16 (Full Scale)
b. 12 3"/8 (6"=1'-0)
c. 21 7"/8 (3"=1'-0)
2. Engineer scale
a) 13.4" (half size)
b)5.85" (1=1)
c) 63.5 ' (1"=10'-0)
3. Metric scale
a) 715 mm (1=5)
b) 33 cm (Half size)
Architect, Engineer, and Metric scales are used in technical drawings and blueprints to represent real-world objects and structures at a reduced size while maintaining proportional accuracy. Each scale serves a specific purpose and is commonly used in different fields.

Which side of a particular scale should I use if I want to draw these lines on a paper . For example I have 1) architect scale with the following dimensions : 1; 1 1/2; 16 ; 3/32; 3/4;1/8.
2. Engineering scale : 10; 20; 30; 60; 40;50
3. metric scale : 1:100; 1:20; 1:50; 1:75;1:25;1:125
