multiply the number by 100,000 to the the R.F scale number.
You multiply by the scale factor. For example, if the scale is 1:100,000, you would multiply by 100,000.
To convert map measurements to actual distance, measure the scale distance on the map and multiply by the denominator of the scale (the larger number in the ratio). e.g. two cm on a 1:25000 map equals 2x25000 = 50,000 cm or 500 meters.
0.4842519685 inch Direct Conversion Formula 12.3 mm* 1 in 25.4 mm = 0.4842519685 in
5 ft 1 inch Direct Conversion Formula1.55 m* 1 ft 0.3048 m = 5.085301837 ft
multiply the number by 100,000 to the the R.F scale number.
1/16 convert to engineering scale, 1 divided by 16 = 0.0625" 0.0625" (architectural) divided by (12 in/feet) (to convert to engineering scale) = 0.0052" in engineering scale
Here's an example: Tillsonburg, ON to Toronto, ON is 5 cm apart. If the scale is 1:1600000, how many km is it? 1600000 X 5 = 800000 divided by 100000 = 80 km.
1:50000 cm 1 cm=50000 divide by one humdred thousand.km 1 cm=0.5 km.
1% of 500,000,000 is 5,000,000.

Convert feet to yards. Then convert yards to inches based on the scale. 3 ft = 1 yd 1 in = 3 yd 18ft x 1yd/3ft = 6 yards 6yd x 1in/3yd = 2 inches
You multiply by the scale factor. For example, if the scale is 1:100,000, you would multiply by 100,000.
