Explanation:
Scales are used on maps in the same way that they are used in plans.
A scale of 1 : 50 000 is used on many Ordnance Survey maps.
This means that 1 cm on the map represents an actual distance of 50 000 cm (or 500 m or 0.5 km).
Converting measurements on a map
We saw above that if a map has a scale of 1 : 50000, then 1 cm on the map is 50000 cm in real life.
