Given:

The distance between the two buildings on a map = 14 cm

The scale is 1:35000.

To find:

The actual distance in km.

Solution:

The scale is 1:35000.

It means 1 cm on map = 35000 cm in actual.

Using this conversion, we get

14 cm on map =
14* 35000 cm in actual.

=
490000 cm in actual.

=
4.9* 1000o0 cm in actual.

=
4.9 km in actual.
[1\text{ km}=100000\text{ cm}]

Therefore, the actual distance between two buildings is 4.9 km.
