$\small\bf\green{☆Verbal\:Scale}$

• The scale is stated in words. The units are usually mentioned in this type of scale, for example, 1 cm= 10 km or 1 cm to 10 km.
• So if you plan a route with a total distance of 22cm on the map, that would imply that you'll be traveling (22cm x 500m) / 1cm = 11000m or 11km on the ground.

$\small\bf\green{☆Linear\:Scale}$

• This consists of a straight line which is divided into lengths that represent given distances on the earth's surface.
• Here such a scale means that one unit of measurment on the map is equal to 50000 of the same unit on the ground. Such a unit can be anything such as centimetre, meter, feet, inches, your finger length, half a lenght of a pencil, etc.
