Question

On a certain map, 1 cm = 12 km actual distance. If two places are 96 km apart, what is their distance on map?
10 cm
12 cm
96 cm
8 cm

Answer 1

1cm=12km

2cm=24km

3cm=36km

4cm=48km

5cm=60km

6cm=72km

7cm=84km

8cm=96km

Or you can see that 96km is 8 times of 12km so in map scale it will 8 times that of 1cm so distance on the map will be 1cm * 8 = 8cm

Hope you understand

Answer 2

Answer:

Given

12km = 1cm

1 km = 1/12 cm

96 km = 96 X 1/12 cm

96 km = 96/12 cm

96 km = 8 cm

option d) 8cm is correct answer.
