Question

A model village is built to scale. It has a scale of 1 : 23. A road has a real-life length of 1.61 km. What is the length of the road in the model village in m?

Answer 1

We need to find how much more or less the ratio becomes

1.61 / 23 = 0.07

we multiply 0.07 with 1 to make the ratio even and get your answer

1 x 0.07 = 0.07 on the map

Hope this helps
