Differential measurements of elliptic flow (${v}_{2}$) for $\mathrm{Au}+\mathrm{Au}$ and $\mathrm{Cu}+\mathrm{Cu}$ collisions at $\sqrt{{s}_{\mathrm{NN}}}=200\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ are used to test and validate predictions from perfect fluid hydrodynamics for scaling of ${v}_{2}$ with eccentricity, system size, and transverse kinetic energy (${\mathrm{KE}}_{T}$). For ${\mathrm{KE}}_{T}\ensuremath{\equiv}{m}_{T}\ensuremath{-}m$ up to $\ensuremath{\sim}1\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ the scaling is compatible with hydrodynamic expansion of a thermalized fluid. For large values of ${\mathrm{KE}}_{T}$ mesons and baryons scale separately. Quark number scaling reveals a universal scaling of ${v}_{2}$ for both mesons and baryons over the full ${\mathrm{KE}}_{T}$ range for $\mathrm{Au}+\mathrm{Au}$. For $\mathrm{Au}+\mathrm{Au}$ and $\mathrm{Cu}+\mathrm{Cu}$ the scaling is more pronounced in terms of ${\mathrm{KE}}_{T}$, rather than transverse momentum.
