Question:


A map has a scale of 1 centimeter : 8 kilometers. Use the given actual distance to find the distance on the map.
176 km

Answer:
1 cm = 8km


OR 8km = 1 cm


==> 1 km = +1%2F8 cm



==> 176 km = +176%2A%281%2F8%29 cm


==> 176 km = +176%2F8 cm


===> 176 km = 22 cm.


Hope you found the explanation useful.
