Question

Someone please help me with this. thanks. and please explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

The cities are actually  190 km apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that a map scale is 1 cm : 50 km.

We need to find the distance between the two cities if they are 3.8 cm apart.

To find the actual distance between the two cities using the map, multiply each side of the relationship by  3.8

3.8 × 1 cm  : 3.8 × 50 km

3.8 cm : 190 km

The cities are actually  190 km apart.

Answer 2

It would be 190 km because you do 5 x 3 to get 15 add a 0 at the end of it. Than at 40 because .8 of 150 is 40. Then 150+40= 190
