The map on the right shows the location of some rides in an amusement park. Every 1cm on the map represent 500cm in the actual park. If the distance between thunder viking and starry ferris on the map is 2cm what is the actual distance in metres between thunder viking and starry ferris in the amusement park
Since every 1cm on the map represents 500cm in the actual park, we can use this ratio to find the actual distance between Thunder Viking and Starry Ferris.
The actual distance in metres = (2cm) * (500cm/1cm) = 1000cm
So, the actual distance between Thunder Viking and Starry Ferris in the amusement park is 1000cm or 10 meters.
