Question

A map is given with a scale of 2cm= 2000km.what is the distance in the map,if the actual distance between the two places is 2500km

Answer 1

Answer:

2.25cm

Explanation:

Given that 2cm in map=2000km in reality

Therefore if two places are 500km apart in reality, in the map they will be 1/4 of 2000 that is 500 km apart.

Now, in the map they will be 1/4 of 2cm which is 0.25cm apart.

➡25000km in reality =2.25 cm in map
