Distance between two cities straight line


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 289 People


If a map shows the straight line distance between two cities as 3 1/2 centimeters and the map scale shows that 1 centimeteer equals 100 kilometers what would the actual distance be

Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

The actual distance between the two cities is 350 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Distance between two cities in the map = 3 1/2 centimeters

Scale of the map: 1 centimeter = 100 kilometers

2. What would the actual distance be?

Let's calculate the actual distance between the two cities, this way:

Actual distance = Distance between two cities in the map * Scale of the map

Replacing with the real values:

Actual distance = 3.5 * 100

Actual distance = 350 kilometers
