If 1 cm represents 30 km on a map and colorado is shown by a 20cm by 15 cm rectangle on the map, what is the approximate actual area of colorado

20*30km = 600km

15*30km = 450km

600km * 450km = 270000 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming 1cm --- 30km causes that 2cm --- 60km, 3cm --- 90km, 4cm --- 120km etc. Notice that number of km's is 30 times greater than the number of cm's on a map

using this logic, you calculate both real dimensions of Colorado by multiplying 20*30 = 600 km and 15*30 = 450km

Then we use a formula of an area of a rectangle assuming and get which is an actual area of Colorado

step-by-step explanation:

if x = 2 you have to find x to finish the problem

the answer is 1/4
