Answer 1

Answer:

Actual distance between Gladville and Columbus = 144 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

On map A,

Distance between Riverside and Gladville = 6.8 cm

Scale used → 1 cm = 40 mi

Therefore, actual distance between Riverside and Gladville = 6.8 × 40

= 272 mi

On map B,

Since, actual distance between Riverside and Gladville = 272 mi

Distance between Riverside and Gladville on map = 3.4 cm

Scale used = $\frac{\text{Distance on map}}{\text{Actual distance}}$

                   = $\frac{3.4}{272}$

                   = $\frac{1}{80}$

Scale used: 1 cm = 80 miles

Distance between Gladville and Columbus = 1.8 cm on map B

By using scale,

Actual distance between Gladville and Columbus = 1.8 × 80

                                                                                   = 144 mi
