In paragraph
Q.1. Describe any two ways of representing map scale
​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are three main ways that scale is indicated on a map: graphic (or bar), verbal, and representative fraction

Bar Scales

Bar scales show scale using a graphic format. The actual length of the bar scale shows what that length represents in real world units.

In the example below, the bar scale shows the distance on the map that represents ten kilometers or a little under six miles.

Representative Fraction

This type of scale representation visually looks very similar to representative fraction (RF). However, representative fraction avoids the use of units in detailing the scale of a map.

For example, scale that has a RF of 1:100 means that every one unit on the map equals one hundred of the same units on the ground.
