Many times a map scale will show distances in both miles and
fiasKO [112]

The correct answer is - kilometers.

Very often, the map scale is showing distances in both miles and kilometers. The reason for this that the majority of the countries in the world use the metric system, thus the kilometers are a must, but also there countries that do not use this system, thus they include the miles. In this way, the map scale can be used by people that both use and not use the metric system in their daily lives.

The map scale is a very important element on the maps. Its purpose is to enable the reader of the map to be able to measure the distance from one place to another, thus to be aware of the real distance in the real space.

What type of economic growth do most developed economies experience?
Sav [38]

Most developed countries experience a slower economic growth compared the developing counties. Economic growth is very different from the economic development. Development will elevate the people from the low standards of living to proper employment which has suitable housing while growth does not consider natural resources that will lead to pollution, diseases and congestion. Development on the other hand is concerned with sustainability meaning that it is meeting the needs of the present without compromising the future needs.
