7. Two fields at a state park ar

Answer 1

Answer:

$The$  $map$  $is$  $using$  $a$  $1cm:125 m$  $scale$

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out, we must use the scale of the map as a unit.

So we first figure out how many meters are for each centimeter on the map.

" Two fields at a state park are fields are 8 centimeters ap(?)ta state park are 1,000 meters from each other."

Set up the ratio:

$\frac{1000}{8} = \frac{x}{1}$

Cross multiply:

$8x$  =  $1000$

Meaning:

$x = \frac{1000}{8}$

1000/8

==> 125

x = 125

Meaning that for every centimeter there is 125 meters

1cm = 125m
