Answer:
5 centimetres = 1 kilometre
Step-by-step explanation:
First add up the distances measured on the map.
1.1+4.8+2.2+3.4=11.5 cm
Based on this, since the number of cm is greater than the number of km, we can figure out that each cm should not be multiplied to get the km, so we can eliminate the first two answers.
Next write an equation to represent finding the scale
x=scale
11.5=2.3x
Now solve for the scale
11.5/2.3=2.3x/2.3
5=x
Therefore the scale is 5 centimetres = 1 kilometre
Answer:

ANSWER: n = -16
4n + 13n = 17n
19 + 13 = 32
15 - 17 = -2
n = -16
Answer:
When you divide a positive number (such as 1,000) by a number greater than 1 (such as 5), the answer must be smaller than the number you started with. The answer must be smaller than 1,000. 2,000 is greater than 1,000, so it cannot be correct. The correct quotient is 1,000/5 = 200.
