Answer: 1 cm

Step-by-step explanation: convert 50000 cm into km. This will give you 0.5 km. This means that 1 cm represents 0.5km

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

1:50000 means 1 cm on the map is 50 000 cm in the real world

so 1 cm on the map = 500 m in the real world (100cm = 1m)

500 m IS .5 km

so 1 cm on the map = .5 km
