Answer:
15,420 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the actual distance between the library and train station to be 500 ft, to find the distance between them in centimeters, we ill convert 500 ft to cm as shown;
Given the conversion:
1 ft = 30.48cm
500ft = x cm
Cross multiply
x cm * 1ft= 30.48 cm * 500ft
x cm = 30.48 cm * 500ft/1ft
x cm = 15,240 cm
Hence the distance between them in centimeters on the map is 15,420 cm
