Question

Change the representative fraction/ratio scale below into a simple statement scale 1:50 000

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1cm represents  0.01 km  ( 1/1000) (Since 1cm represents 1000 cms or 0.01 km)

1cm represents  0.5km    (1/50000) (Since 1 cm represents 50000cm or 0.5 km)

1cm represents 5km (1/500000) (Since 1 cm represents 500000cm or 5 km)

Explanation:

A "Representative fraction" is a ratio/fraction which "expresses" the "mathematical relationship" between "Land's actual length & length on the Map" such as 1:25000 & is "indicated" by a "fraction" whose "numerator" is "1" always. This "fraction" is generally "abbreviated" as "RF". Therefore,

"Representative Fraction" (RF) = "Map distance/Ground distance"

The measurement unit of "distances"in  the "denominator & numerator" is the "same". for example, if we say RF of a map is 1/200000 or 1:200000, it implies that 1 unit on the"map" "represents 200000 units on the "ground". If the measurement unit say is CM, we would say 1cm on the "map" "represents" 200000 cms on the "ground". Similarly if the measurement unit is an"inch", we would say 1inch  on the "map" is 200000inches on the "ground"
