Scale on a map of Ireland is 1.2 000000 how many square centimetres are represented on the map by the province of Munster.

Question is incomplete, we will however explain how the scale works using examples

Answer and explanation:

Given the map scale 1:2000000, the fraction from this 1/2000000 is the representative fraction. The representative fraction is the ratio of distance on the map to the real distance on ground.

With the representative fraction 1/2000000, we can find how many meters on the ground is represented by a unit of measurement in centimeters on the map thus:

Given 1m= 100cm

Representative fraction broken down = 1/2×10000×100

Therefore 1cm on the map = 20000m on ground

ok then what happened.
