Given:
The distance between the two buildings on a map = 14 cm
The scale is 1:35000.
To find:
The actual distance in km.
Solution:
The scale is 1:35000.
It means 1 cm on map = 35000 cm in actual.
Using this conversion, we get
14 cm on map = cm in actual.
= cm in actual.
= cm in actual.
= km in actual.
Therefore, the actual distance between two buildings is 4.9 km.
