Question

reading and using statement of scale,graphic scale and scale shown by representative fraction method​

Answer 1

Answer:

Statement of a scale describes in words the distance on the map, and it's equivalent distance on Earth's surface. It is represented in ratio, which we call Representative Fraction.  Eg: 1: 50000 means 1cm on the map is 50000 cms on actual ground.

The Graphical Scale is a bar which usually represent the true distance of an unit length on the map. Graphical scale and the numerical scale can be translated into each other  

While calculating the distance between two places the length can be measured by using a string or divider and the distance can then be calculated by placing the string or divider on the graphical scale directly and the kms can be calculated.

Answer 2

Answer:

I is represented by fraction or in ratio which is called the representative fraction. EXAMPLE: 1/50,000 or 1: 50,000 written on map means 1cm on the map is 50,000cm on ground. The graphic scale is a bar which represents the true distance between any places on the map

Explanation:

Statement of a scale describes in words the distance on the map, and it's equivalent distance on Earth's surface. It is represented in ratio, which we call Representative Fraction. Eg: 1: 50000 means 1 cm on the map is 50000 cms on actual ground

Representative fractions are expressed in the form of 1 followed by a : (colon) and then a number, where the one is the numerator in the fraction, the colon represents the division operation, and the other number is the denominator. Thus, a scale of 1:24,000 can be expressed mathematically as 1/24,00
