[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the actual distance represented by 2.80cm on a map with a scale of 1cm to 25km, you can set up a proportion:

Let x be the actual distance.
From the given scale, we can set up the following proportion:

1cm / 25km = 2.80cm / x

To solve for x, you can cross-multiply and solve for x:

1cm * x = 2.80cm * 25km

x = (2.80cm * 25km) / 1cm

x = 70km

Therefore, the actual distance represented by 2.80cm on the map is 70 kilometers.
