    We are given dimensions of rectangular bedroom = length of 5m and width 3 m.

    Also scale drawing of factor 1/50 of the original dimension.

    In order to find the dimensions of scale drawing, we need to multiply scale factor by each dimension.

    Therefore, length of the scale drawing is 5 * 1/50 = 1/10 m and

    Let us convert it in centimeter now.

    1 m = 100 cm

    1/10 m = 100 * 1/10 = 10cm.

    Width of the scale drawing = 3 * 1/50 = 3/50 m.

    100*3/50 = 6 cm.

    Therefore, the dimensions of a scale drawing of Elenas bedroom is length 10cm and width 6cm.
