In this paper dividing factors GL and GT are constructed for the longitudinal and transverse responses of the relativistic Fermi gas in such a way that the reduced responses so obtained scale. These factors parallel another dividing factor studied previously, HL, that yields a (different) reduced response which fulfills the Coulomb sum rule. GL, GT and HL are all found to be only very weakly model-dependent, thus providing essentially universal dividing factors. To explore the residual degree of dependence which remains, the scaling and sum rule properties of several specific models have been considered. It is seen that the relativistic Fermi gas (by construction) and also typical shell-model reduced responses successfully scale and satisfy the Coulomb sum rule, as do experimental results at medium to high momentum transfers. On the other hand, it is observed that the quantum hadrodynamic model does so only if interaction effects become weaker with increasing momentum transfer, as predicted in the most recent versions of that model.
