Problema Solution

a map has a scale of 1 cm :75km what is the distance on the map for an actual distance of 35.7 km

Answer provided by our tutors

Let 'x' represent the distance on the map in cm for an actual distance of 35.7 km.

x : 35.7 = 1 : 75

x = 35.7/75

x = 0.476 cm

35.7 km distance is 0.476 = 4.76 mm on the map.
