the distance between two points on a 1:50000 map is 10cm .calculate the distance on the actual ground giving your answer in kilometers
1 m = 100 cm
1 km = 1000 m = 1000 • 100 cm
1 km = 100 000 cm
50 000 • 10 cm = 500 000 cm = 5 km
1 km = 1000 m = 1000 • 100 cm
1 km = 100 000 cm
50 000 • 10 cm = 500 000 cm = 5 km
