Here is a sample for that:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1,user-scalable=no"/>
    <title>Simple Map</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://js.arcgis.com/3.30/esri/css/esri.css">
    <style>
      html, body, #map {
        height: 100%;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
      }
      #scale {
        position: absolute;
        bottom: 5px;
        left: 5px;
        background: rgba(255,255,255,0.7);
        font-size: 13px;
        line-height: 15px;
      }
    </style>
    <script src="https://js.arcgis.com/3.30/"></script>
    <script>
      var map;

      require(["esri/map", "dojo/domReady!"], function(Map) {
        map = new Map("map", {
          basemap: "topo",  //For full list of pre-defined basemaps, navigate to http://arcg.is/1JVo6Wd
          center: [-122.45, 37.75], // longitude, latitude
          zoom: 13
        });
        
        map.on('update-end', function(evt){
          document.getElementById('scale').innerHTML = '1:' + map.getScale().toFixed(2);
        });
      });
    </script>
  </head>

  <body>
    
    <div id="map"></div>
    <div id="scale"></div>
  </body>
</html>

I'm working on API 4.x

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://js.arcgis.com/4.7/esri/css/main.css">

Is there any compatible way to do this work in API 4.x

Thank you,
