Discussion
A road measured with a thread is 24 cm long on a 1:50,000 map. How far is it on the ground?
Answer: A
Twenty-four centimetres at 50,000 times is 1,200,000 centimetres, which is 12 kilometres. Following the curves rather than measuring straight across is what makes the figure useful for planning a journey, since a vehicle must travel the road as it lies.
