Create a visual representation of a map and a ruler. The map should be made of intricate yet understandable line patterns giving a good representation of an area. The scale of the map should be clearly visible at a corner, showing 1:10,000. Beside the map, there should be a ruler showing 20 centimeters. Also, display lines on the map equivalent to 20cm on that ruler to depict the distance on the map. Underneath the map, a walking distance representation, such as footprints, can convey the idea of actual ground distance.

If the scale of a map is 1:10,000 and the distance on the map is 20cm, calculate the actual distance on the ground

the answer is 2km

Don't know what units you are using. Assuming cm and miles:

20 * 10,000 = ? miles

Please are u a mathematician, how did u get the 2cm

I want to see and know how you got your answer

Please the workings

20cm×100000=200000cm

Convert into meters
200000/1000(3 decimal place to the left)=200m
Convert into kilometer
200/100(2 decimal place to the left)=2km

If the scale of a map is 1:10000cm and the distance on the map is 20cm then the actual distance on the ground is what

How to calculate a scale of a map is 1:0000 two points measured on the map is 20cm what is the actual distance on the ground

2km

Kindly show the procedure used in getting your obtained answer
