Answer:
1:500000
Step-by-step explanation:
1 mm (map) equals 500 m (actual) .
Let's convert 500 m to mm.
1m = 1000mm
500m = 500000 mm
So 1mm to 500000mm on a scale is
1:500000
So it's all about converting the metre to million metre then doing the ratio.
In this case we are not to divide anything because it's already in 1.
So it's 1mm on paper then 500000mm on actual.
