Answer:

15 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale : 1 : 300,000

Find 1 cm in actual distance in km:

1 cm : 300,000 cm

(Convert 300,000 cm to m by dividing by 100)

1 cm : 300,000 ÷ 100 = 3000 m

(Convert 3000 m to km by dividing by 1000)

1 cm : 3000 ÷ 1000 = 3 km

Find 5 cm in actual distance in km:

1 cm : 3 km

5 cm : 3 x 5 = 15 km

Answer: The actual distance is 15 km

kesavasankar31: how we can get 100 there

TooFree: 1m = 100 cm
