Question

4. What are representative fractions? What is their
biggest advantage?​

Answer 1

Answer:

One of the major advantages of using the R.F. (Representative Fraction) scale is that it allows you to directly compare the sizes of objects between different maps. Because the R.F. eliminates the use of specific units (such as inches, feet, miles, etc.), there are no complicated conversions needed.

Answer 2

Answer:

The scale of a map, expressed in the form of a numerical fraction that relates linear distances on the map to the corresponding actual distances on the ground, measured in the same units (centimeters, inches, feet); e.g., 1/24,000 indicates that one unit on the map represents 24,000 equivalent units on the ground.

Its biggest advantage is that it has universal application.
