Question

the scale on a map is 1/2 cm = 1 km if the distance shown in actual distance is 24 km what is the distance on map​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

The scale of the map is 2 cm = 1 km

To find,

The actual distance which is 14 cm distance of the map.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.

Here, are just need to apply normal arithmetic method.

2 cm on map is = 1 km in real

1 cm on map is = 1/2 km in real

14 cm on map is = 14/2 = 7 km in real

(This is the conversion between reducing scale to 1:1 scale)

Hence, the actual distance is 7 kilometres.

Answer 2

answer :

12 cm

solution:

1 km = 1/2 cm

24km = ? cm

= 24 × 1/2

=. 12 cm
