Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:1250kms.

Answer:1250kms.Explanation:

We are given,

We are given,2 cm ⇒1000 kms (scale)

We are given,2 cm ⇒1000 kms (scale)So, For 2.5 cm ⇒ ? kms (say x)

We are given,2 cm ⇒1000 kms (scale)So, For 2.5 cm ⇒ ? kms (say x)By Ratio, we get required distance

$\frac{2}{1000} = \frac{2.5}{x} \\ x = \frac{2.5 \times 1000}{2} \\ x = 1250$
