The 11 kilometer road will be 1.1 cm long on the map

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale is used on maps to show large locations or roads as small representatives of the larger objects.

The scale factor is usually in proportion to the original length or dimensions.

Given that

1 cm = 10 km

Then, we will divide the number of kilometers by 10 to find the length of road on map

11 km on map = $\frac{11}{10}$

Hence,

The 11 kilometer road will be 1.1 cm long on the map
