On a map of a town, 3 cm represents 150 m. Two points in the town are 1 km apart. How far apart are the two points on the map?

5000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

3 cm represents on a map of  a town=150 m

Distance between two points=1 km

We have to find the distance between two points on the map.

3 cm represents on a map of  a town=150 m

1 cm represents on a map of  a town=150/3 m

1 km=1000 m

1 m=100 cm

100000 cm  represents on a map of  a town

= m

100000 cm  represents on a map of  a town=5000000 m

100000 cm  represents on a map of  a town

=

100000 cm  represents on a map of  a town=5000 km

Hence, two points are separated by 5000 km on the map.
