You would look at the scale of the map. The scale indicates the comparison between the distances on the map - to distances in the real world. For example... if the map scale shows 1:10,000 - That means every unit on the map is equal to 10,000 units in real life.
14000 divided by 100000 = 0.14 feet, i.e. 1.68 inches or 4.28 cm
The scale is 83 1/3 miles per inch, times 34.5 inches is 2875 miles.Using decimals would introduce a slight error, so what you may want to do instead is assume a scale 1 inch = 250 miles, times 34.5 is 8625, and then divide by 3 for your actual scale. 8625/3 = 2875
if a map show the straight line distance between two cities as 3 and one half centimeters and the map scale show that 1 centimeter equals 100 kilometers what would the actual distance be ?
Your camera lens would be set for the distance from you to the mirror plus 2 meters if you wanted the image of your sister to be in focus. If she wanted to take a picture of her own image with the camera she is holding next to her head, her lens would be set to 4 meters.
The "scale" of a map tells you how the map displays the actual distance.
The key.
The map scale is usually located in the legend box of a map.
If the scale is 1 centimeter to 1 kilometer, then the actual distance represented by the scale distance would be 1 kilometer for every 1 centimeter on the map. This means that if you measure a distance of, say, 5 centimeters on the map using this scale, the actual distance in real life would be 5 kilometers.
To find out how far an inch on a map represents in actual distance, you would need to look for the map's scale. The scale of a map indicates the ratio between a unit of length on the map and the corresponding distance on the ground. Typically, the scale is provided in the map's legend or key. By using this scale, you can calculate the actual distance represented by an inch on the map.

0.00004 kms
They would be represented equally.
Maps are flat and Earth is round
The degree Master of Public Policy is represented by the abbreviation MPP. One would want to work towards this degree if they wanted to serve in government.
The straight line distance would be 350 kilometers (3.5 x 100 km). Multiply the measured distance by the scale.
Sure thing, honey. If the map distance is 6 cm, the actual distance would be 63 km. If the map distance is 8.5 cm, the actual distance would be 89.25 km. Just multiply the map distance by 21 km and divide by 2 cm to get the actual distance. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
