WILL MARK BRAINLIST A particular map shows a scale of 1 cm:5 km. What would the map distance be (in cm) if the actual distance to be represented is 14 km?

2.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The map scale is 1 cm : 5 km. That means that 1 cm is equal to 5 km.

To find the map distance (in cm), we have to set up a ratio.

X (the map distance in cm) is over the actual distance of 14 km.

Now cross multiply and divide.

If the actual distance to be represented is 14 km, the map distance (in cm) will be 2.8 cm.

Hope that helps.
