Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
21 white tiles = 63 cm2
total number is 144
144-63 = 81
81/3 = 27
so 27 black tiles
21+27 = 48 total.
The common denominator is already there 12 is the common denominator!! :)
The given scale for the map means that a distance of 1 cm between two locations on the map corresponds to a real distance between them of 600,000 cm = 6 km.
So, if the distance between two places in reality is 87 km, on the map this would be represented by a distance of 14.5 cm, since
87 = 84 + 3
87 = 6 • 14 + 6 • (1/2)
87 = 6 • (14 + 1/2)
