The ratio of centimeters on a map to distance in kilometers is 2 to 5. If two cities are 16 cm apart on the map, what is the actual distance in kilometers between the two cities? You can use a double number line diagram to help you solve.

So the map has a scale of 1 cm: 20 km. Next, you look at how far they are apart and see if the scale and the distance on the map are the same measurement. In this case, they are both centimeters so they stay the same. Then, all you do is multiple the real size, 20 km, by
2.5
1
. Then, 20 x 2.5=50. So the answer is 50 km
