Question 1029876: Map of Oxfordshire has a scale of 1:25000. If the distance from Islip to Beckley is 18 cm on the map, what is the actual distance in km? If the distance from Eynsham to Woodstock is 7.5km, how far will the distance be on the map? The map measures 40 cm by 80 cm. What area of ground does the map cover? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
1:25000 scale means that 1 cm on the map represents 25000 centimeters of actual distance. 25000 cm is 250 meters is 0.25 km. So 4 cm on the map represents 1 km. 18 divided by 4 is the number of kilometers the map claims is the distance from Islip to Beckley.
