Question 272632: The distance between two cities on a road map is 32 cm. The two cities are actually 150 km apart. The distance on the map between two other cities is 80 cm. How many km apart are these cities? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The distance between two cities on a road map is 32 cm. The two cities are actually 150 km apart. The distance on the map between two other cities is 80 cm. How many km apart are these cities?
The distance on the map is 32 cm.
which is actually 150 km.
So 1 cm on map will be 150 / 32 = 4.68 km
The distance on the map between two other cities =80 cm.
1 cm on map = 4.68 km actual
so 80 cm on the map = 80 * 4.68 km
374.40 km.
