Question

8 a map of 10 cm x 8 cm represents an area of 50000sq. Meter of a field. The r.F. Of the scale is

Answer 1

Answer:

(R.F) Representative Fraction scale of the map,

= 1 / 625 × 10⁵ or 1 : 62500000

Step-by-Step Explanation,

Given Data,

Area of the Map = 10 × 8 cm² = 80 cm² = 8 x 10⁻³ m²

Area of the Field = 50,000 m²  = 5 x 10⁴ m²

So,

(R.F) Representative Fraction Scale = Area of the Map/Area of the Field.

= 8 × 10⁻³/5 × 10⁴

= 1 / 0.625 × 10⁸

= 1 / (625 × 10⁵)

(R.F) Representative Fraction scale of the map,

= 1 / 625 × 10⁵ or 1 : 62500000
