printf prints to a file descriptor known as the Standard Output.
scanf reads from a file descriptor known as the Standard Input.

Back in the day these file descriptors were attached to the send and
receive lines of serial cables used to drive terminals.

These days, the terminals are emulated in software.  You'll find a
terminal emulator called "Terminal" in your Utilities folder, which is
in your Applications folder.

If you run your program from inside the Terminal, you'll get the
results you expect.

The following Google search will help you out:

I'll send you my bill in the mail. ;-)
