Explanation:

Representative Fraction

A method of representing the scale of a map or plan as a fraction that compares the distance measured in one unit on the ground to the same distance on the map or plan.

Denominator:

The fraction's denominator is the number below the line.

For example:  In a fraction of 1 : 50000

50000 is the denominator

Numerator:

The fraction's  numerator is the number above the line.

For example  In a fraction of 1 : 50000

1 is the numerator

As we know that,

1 mile = 63360 inch

1 -inch scale represents 5 miles

5 mile = 63360 × 5

          = 316800

Therefore the R:F is 1 : 316800

Final answer:

As a result 316800 inches on the  ground represented by 1 inch on the map
