What is scale reported as when map distance is the numerator and ground distance as a denominator?
Representative fraction
What is the definition to map scale indicator?
it is an indicator used to determine the distance on a paper and the actual distance on the ground.
What kind of benefits of the scale on a map?
the benefit of a map scales is to show the relationship between the distance on the map and the real distance on the ground
What is the scale ration 1 decimeter represents 1 meter on ground?
1:10 or 1/10. A decimeter is one tenth of a meter. So any distance in the real world will be represented by a distance 1/10 of that on the map.
How do you add and subtract improper fractions with different denominator?
he fact that they are improper is irrelevant. Re-scale the fractions so that they have the same denominator and thenadd or subtract as required.
What is scale reported as when map distance is the numerator and ground distance as a denominator?
Representative fraction
What is the difference with a linear and nonlinear scale?
The differences between the these two is that linear scale shows the relation between the map distance and the ground distance. The nonlinear scale do not show the relation between the map distance and the ground distance.
What is printed on the map used to convert distance on the map to actual ground distance?
A map scale lets you convert map distance to ground distance.
What is the ruler printed on a map used to convert distance on the map to ground distance?
graphic scale It's called the scale.
What is the ruler printed on a map used to convert the distance on a map to ground distance?
graphic scale It's called the scale.
What is the part that shows how much space is on the map represents a given distance?
The "scale" of a map tells you how the map displays the actual distance.
What is the ruler printed on a map used to convert distance on the map to actual ground distance?
A map scale lets you convert map distance to ground distance.
What ruler printed on a map is used to convert distance on the map to actual ground distance?
A map scale lets you convert map distance to ground distance.
If the distance of map is 50cm and the scale of the map is 250,000given.what is the distance of the ground?
In this case you have a map with a scale of 1:250000, meaning 1 map unit represents 250000 units on the actual ground. Since the distance on the map is 50 cm(centimeters) we calculate the distance as follows Distance on the ground = distance on the map * the scale 50 cm * 250000 giving us 12 500 000. Therefore, the distance on the ground is 12 500 000 centimeters.
What is the ratio of distance on a map to actual ground distance known as?
The scale. a map scale **************************************** A map with a scale of 1:50 000 (ratio of 1 in 50,000) means that 1 centimetre measured on the map represnts 50,000 centimetres on the ground.
What is a scale of a map?
Is the relationship between the distance measured on the map to the actual distance on the ground
What is the ruler printed on the map used to convert distance on the map to actual ground distance?
graphic scale It's called the scale.
