Question

The scale on a map is 1.2 cm = 6.4 km. The actual distance from Point A to Point B is 20 km. How far is that on the map in cm?

Answer 1

3.75 cm

Explanation:

We know

1.2 cm = 6.4 km

Point A to Point B = 20 km

To find it, we take

20 divided by 6.4 then times 1.2 = 3.75 cm

So, 20 km is 3.75 cm far on the map.
