How long is the segment representing the distance of 95 km on the map, if the scale of the map is 1: 1,000,000.

1. Let’s translate the scale into a named, if literally translated, then in 1 cm 1 000 000 cm, we will translate this value into kilometers:

1,000,000: 100 = 10,000 m (100 centimeters in 1 meter);

10000: 1000 = 10 km (1000 meters in 1 kilometer).

Then the scale of 1 centimeter is 10 kilometers.

2. Find the length has a segment on the map representing the distance of 95 km:

95: 10 = 9.5 (cm).

Answer: the segment on the map is 9.5 centimeters long.
