Answer 1

Answer:

~ 2 kilometers in length of the actual path ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us plan out our steps, and solve for each:

1. Given the information, let us create a proportionality as such:

        1       =           10,000      ⇒   x - centimeters in length of actual path

       20                    x

2. Now let us cross multiply, and solve through simple algebra for x:

10,000 * 20 = x,

x = 200,000 centimeters of the width of the item in reality

3. The answer demands in km, so let us convert 200,000 cm ⇒ km:

200,000/100,000 = 2 kilometers in length of the actual path
