Answer:

1 cm : 82km

Step-by-step explanation:

Now

1km = 1000 X 100 cm

Therefore

2050km = 2050 X 1000 X 100cm

2050km = 205,000,000 cm

25cm rep 205,000,000 cm

1cm rep 205,000,000/25 cm

1cm rep 8,200,000cm

8,200,000= 8,200,000÷(100,000)km

=82km

Therefore: 1cm represents 82km

An alternate approach is to divide directly

25cm rep 2050 km

1cm represents 2050/25km

1cm: 82km

The scale is 1 cm : 82km

I = 1890

P = 7000

t = 3

I = Prt

r = I/(Pt)

r = 1890/(7000 x 3)

r = 1890/21000
