The equivalent ratios of the scale 1 cm to 5 km are
a) 1 cm corresponds to 5 km
b) 3 cm corresponds to 15 km
c) 5 cm corresponds to 25 km
How to determine the equivalent ratios of the scale 1 cm to 5 km.
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
Scale = 1 cm to 5 km
This implies that
1 cm corresponds to 5 km
So, (a) is true
Multiply the ratio by 3 and by 5
So, we have
3 * 1 cm corresponds to 5 km * 3
5 * 1 cm corresponds to 5 km * 5
Evaluate
3 cm corresponds to 15 km
5 cm corresponds to 25 km
This means that the equivalent ratios of the scale 1 cm to 5 km are (a), (b) and (c)
