The segment on the map with a length of 4.8 cm corresponds to a distance of 192 km on the ground.

The segment on the map with a length of 4.8 cm corresponds to a distance of 192 km on the ground. What is the distance between places if the distance between them on the map is exactly 5.6 cm?

1. Determine the scale of the map, dividing the distance on the ground by the corresponding distance on the map, we get:
192 km / 4.8 cm = 192,000 m / 0.048 m = 4,000,000.
2. Now let’s calculate the distance on the ground, if it corresponds to 5.6 cm on the map. To do this, we will increase this distance by 4,000,000 times:
5.6 cm * 4,000,000 = 22,400,000 cm = 224,000 m = 224 km.
Answer: 5.6 cm distance on the map corresponds to 224 km on the ground.
