Answer:
Factors for 8: 1, 2, 4, 8
Factors for 9: 1, 3, 9
So 8 has more factors
A) Scale of map is 1: 30,000
This is assuming that it meant 1 centimetre = 30,000 metres, for it gives no other information.
Multiply 1 with 30,000: 30,000 x `1 = 30,000
30,000 metres is your answer.
B) Scale is 1 inch: 6 miles. You are given 2.5 inches.
Remember that 1 inch = 6 miles.
Multiply 2.5 to both sides: (2.5) * 1 inch = (2.5) * 6 miles
2.5 inch = 2.5 * 6 miles
2.5 inch = 15 miles
15 miles is your answer.
