A line scale is a long line with regularly interval numbers. They are usually used on maps to show distance. They can have different scales (km, cm, in) and compare distances. For example, if you have a map of Canada in a textbook, a line scale in the bottom mights show that every five cm on a page represents 700km on the map.
If you look at the bottom of the map, there should be a scale. Take a ruler, measure the distance for each measurement, and convert to what you need

Here is a little trick to know how to tell the difference between a large scale map, and a small scale map. A large scale map is a map where your house would look large on it. For example, a map of your neighborhood, or a map of you area. (You can see you house on this map) A small scale map is a map where your house would look small on it (or you can't see it at all), like a map of the world, or a map of Europe. So large scale = large house small scale = small house.

Look to where the key is and it should give you a scale like 1cm on the map is the equivelent to a km (example)
A variable scale uses a set of adjustable accordion-like compasses to compute the distances between points on a map or diagram.
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.

To find how far an inch is on a map, look for the map scale. It will indicate how many miles is in an inch.
a map scale is miles like 150,20,60,and more map scale is used for directions like where is the Ohio river and smoky mountins. It's used to meausre distances.
