The ratio of the scale of the plan to the actual length is 1:22.

This means that every 1 cm on the plan represents 22 cm for the actual length.

Therefore, to find the actual length of 101 cm on the plan, we just have to multiply 101 * 22. This equals 2222 cm.

Therefore, the actual length is 2222 cm.
