Question

On a map, 80 km are represented by 5 cm. If the distance between two cities on the map is 15 cm. Find the actual distance between them.​

Answer 1

Answer:

240km

Step-by-step explanation:

5cm =80km

15cm = 80 ×3(Since 15 is 5×3)

Answer 2

Answer:

First we need to convert 15 km in cm to form the ratio.

1 km=100000 cm

∴15 km=15×100000=1500000 cm

The ratio will became 5:1500000

=

$\frac{5}{1500000}$

=

$\frac{1}{300000}$

by reducing.

Ratio is 1:300000
