Well, honey, the scale ratio of 1cm to 10m is 1:1000. It's like comparing a baby carrot to a giraffe – there's quite a size difference there. So, next time you're measuring something small in centimeters and need to visualize it in meters, just remember that 1cm is a thousand times smaller than 10m.
(50 km) x (1,000 m/km) x (100 cm/m) = 5,000,000So [ 1cm=50km ] is a scale of 1 to 5 million.
The ratio is: 7cm to 1cm
10000cm
10 metres is 1000 times as large as 1 centimetre. Therefore in this scale, one unit (whatever that unit may be) must actually represent the same unit times 1000. So, for example, a model of a building which in reality is actually 33 metres high, to this scale, would be 0.033 metres or 3.3cm high.
10mm equalls 1cm and 2m equalls 200cm. The ratio is 1:200.
1:1000
(50 km) x (1,000 m/km) x (100 cm/m) = 5,000,000So [ 1cm=50km ] is a scale of 1 to 5 million.
A scale factor in a number that changes the size of a shape by that scale examples: 1: if you have a square that is 1cm by 1cm and you increaseit by a scale factor of 3 the square would then be 3cm by 3cm 2: if you had a 2cm by 2 cm square and increase by a scale factor of 0.5 you'd get a 1cm by 1 cm square
160m is the area with dimensions of 16cm by 10cm
1:10,000 represents a scale of 1cm to every 10,000cm. 10,000 centimetres is equal to one metre.
1 cm to 250 m = 1 cm to 25000 cm = 1 to 25,000
if 2cm is 50km 1cm is 25km
100 km = 100,000 m = 10,000,000 cm Hence this is a scale of 1:10,000,000.
The ratio is: 7cm to 1cm
Somewhere on a map there will be a scale. The scale will tell you the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. eg 1cm = 10km
1:50,000
1cm : 0.00001km
