Question

What advantage does a representative fraction have over a verbal scale?

Answer 1

Representative Fraction (RF) is also known as a numerical function.

It is the ratio that exists between the length on the map and the real length that is there on the ground.

It is represented by a fraction whose numerator is always one.

Compared to the Verbal Scale in which one centimeter on the map represents 500m on the ground, the RF is always a better option as the exact distance can be known easily.

For a large map, RF can be very much suitable.
