Answer 2

Answer:

a distance of 700 km between two cities a and b is represented in the map by 5 cm

from this we can say that 700:5

                                      or 140:1

if two cities ae 11cm apart i.e, x:11

as they are on same map and hence same scale

         x/11 = 140/1

      11×140 = x

        1540  = x

hence the cities are 1540km apart.
