Answer 1

Map scale = Distance on map / Actual distance on ground.

Explanation:

so here given 1cm = 100 km ,so 6cm × 100 = 600 km will be the actual distance on ground.

Answer 2

Answer:

the actual distance between two places which are situated  at a distance of 6 cm on a map and the map scale is 1 cm: 100 km is 6-600

A map scale is the relationship between a distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the earth. Map scale may be expressed as an equivalence, usually by different units (e.g., 1inch = 1mile or 1:63,360); or graphically, as a bar scale. Large scale maps make each feature look larger, and show a smaller geographic area. Small scale maps make each feature look smaller, and show a larger geographic area.
