Explanation

In map scales, a smaller denominator means a larger scale (more detail, less area covered). 1:1000 has the smallest denominator, so it shows the most detail and covers the smallest area - making it the largest scale. Conversely, 1:100000 covers a huge area with less detail, making it a smaller scale.
