Answer:
The length of the road = 4.7 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Scale of map is 1:100000
Hence,
1 cm = 100000 cm
= 1000 m ............(100 cm = 1 m)
= 1 km .................( 1000m = 1 km)
Now,
If 1 cm corresponds to 1 km, 4.7 cm will correspond to 4.7 km
Length of the road represented by a 4.7-cm line on the map is 4.7 km.
