map of a city uses the scale 1 cm equals 50 m. On the map, South Street is 25 cm long. If there is a traffic cone at the start

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

125 traffic cones

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the total number of meters, we can set up a proportion to find based on the ration of cm to m:

$\frac{centimeters}{meters}=\frac{1}{50}=\frac{25}{x}$ , where 'x' is the number of meters

cross-multiply: x = 25(50) or x = 1250 m

Since there is a cone every 10 m, we can divide the total number of meters by 10:

1250/10 = 125 cones
