Question

Convert the statement 1 cm = 100 km into an R.F. scale.
​

Answer 1

1 km = 1000 m, 1 m = 100 cm

100 km = 100 × 1000 × 100 = 1,00,00,000 cm

Since RF = Distance on the map in cm

RFscale = 1 / 1,00,00,000 = 1:100,00,000

Answer 2

Answer:

The required answer is: $1:100,00,000$

Explanation:

A ratio or fraction, such as 1:24,000, that expresses the mathematical relationship between a map and the land means that "1 map unit is such as 24,000 land units." The lack of units (inches, centimeters, etc.) in R.F. suggests that R.F. scales are compared across many maps.

$1km=1000m$, $1m=100cm$

$100km=100$ × $1000$ × $100=1,00,00,000cm$

Since RF = Distance on the map in cm

RFscale= $\frac{1}{1,00,00,000}$

$=1:1,00,00,000$
