The distance between the towns of averton and brackeston is 10km. on a map the distance is 5 cm.
what is the scale of the map in its simplest from?

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the scale of the map, divide the distance on the map by the distance in the actual

so

Remember that

substitute

simplify

That means

1 unit on the map represent 200,000 units in the actual

or

1 cm on the map represent 200,000 cm in the actual

1 cm on the map represent 2 km in the actual

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

heyyy
