Question
Convert the given Statement of Scale into Representative Fraction (R.F.) :
1. 5 cm represent 10 km.
2. 2 inches represents 4 miles.
3. 1 inch represents 1 yard.
4. 1 cm represents 100 metres.
Solution
1.
5 cm represents
= 10 km or 1000000 cm
1 cm represents = 1000000 ÷ 5
=200000
R. F. : 1 : 200000
2.
5 cm represents
= 10 km or 1000000 cm
1 cm represents = 1000000 ÷ 5
=200000
R. F. : 1 : 200000
3.
1' represents = 1 yard or 36'
1' represents =36'
R. F. : 1 : 36
4.
l cm represents= 100 metres
1 cm represents = 100 metres or 10000 cm
R. F. : 1 : 10000
