Question : 110 of 200

Marks: +1, -0

The scale of a map is represented by representative fraction as 1 : 4000. The distance between two points A and B in the map is 10 cm. The distance AB on the ground is (in km units):

0.04
40
4
0.4

Validate

Solution:

Representative fraction = 1 : 4000, Map distance = 10 cm

{1}/{4000}={10 {\cm}}/{{ \Ground \distance }}

⇒ Ground distance = 40000 cm = 0.4 km
The distance AB on the ground is 0.4 km
