A map has scale 1:75,000. The measured map distance between two points is 4.8 centimetres. What is the real distance? Enter the number of kilometres.
Respuesta correcta
3.6
Explicación
The real distance is 4.8 times 75,000, or 360,000 centimetres, and that equals 3.6 kilometres. Calling it 360 kilometres would preserve the initial digits while omitting the conversion from centimetres.
