Question

In the morning, Sophie goes to the church then goes to the school. In the afternoon she goes to school to home. The map shows the distance between school and home as 5 cm. If every 4 cm on the scale drawing equals 8 kilometers, how far apart are the school and home?

Answer 1

10 km because you have 1 cm left over after you make 8 km with the 5cm so you just divide 8 by 4 and get 2km then add that to the 8 to get 10.
