Question

A map is drawn to a scale of 1:1,000,000
A forest on the map has an area of a 4.6cm square
Calculate the actual area of the forest in square kilometres.

Answer 1

Answer:

scale of map = 1 : 1000000

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore,

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000= 100 sq km

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000= 100 sq kmAs the area of the forest on the map is 4.6 cm².

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000= 100 sq kmAs the area of the forest on the map is 4.6 cm².So, the actual area of the forest = 100 × 4.6

scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000= 100 sq kmAs the area of the forest on the map is 4.6 cm².So, the actual area of the forest = 100 × 4.6= 460 sq m

Answer 2

Answer:

460 sq m

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem Given:

A map is drawn to a scale of 1:1,000,000   A forest on the map has an area of a 4.6cm square

Calculate the actual area of the forest in square kilometres.

Solution:

To Calculate:

The actual area of the forest in square kilometres.

-------------------

Given:

Scale of map = 1:1000000

1 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.

Therefore,

1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)

And, 1000000 cm × 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)

1 km = 100000 cm × 100000 cm = 10000000000

So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000

= 100 sq km

As the area of the forest on the map is 4.6 cm².

So, the actual area of the forest = 100 × 4.6

= 460 sq m.....(Answer)
