The length of one field on a scale of 1: 10000 is represented by a 4.5 cm line, and the length of another other field, shown on a scale of 150 m in 1 cm, is represented by a 3 cm line. Which field is longer and by how much?

By the condition of the problem, it is known that the length of the first field in the drawing, the scale of which is “1 to 10000”, is depicted by a segment equal to 4.5 centimeters.

Let’s calculate the real length of the first field:

4.5 * 10000 = 45000 cm.

Let’s calculate the real length of the second field, taking into account that it is depicted by a segment equal to 3 centimeters in the drawing, the scale of which is “150 m in 1 cm”.

3 * 150 = 450 meters.

Let’s compare the length of these fields.

45000 cm = 450 m.

450 m = 450 m.

Obviously, both fields are the same length.
