Answer 1

Given that :

The route to the campsite is 28 cm on the drawing.

The scale on the drawing is 1:300

To find,

The actual length of the route.

Solution,

Let the actual length of the route be x.

Here, map distance : actual distance = 1: 300

$\dfrac{1}{300}=\dfrac{28}{x}\\\\x=28\times 300\\\\x=8400\ cm$

So, the actual length of the route is 8400  cm.
