What is the length of the stream if on a plan with a scale of 1: 5000 its length is 10 cm?

On the plan, the scale of which is 1: 5000, in 1 centimeter of the plan 5000 centimeters of distance on the ground are displayed.

Since 1 meter is 100 centimeters, when converting this distance into meters, we get:

5000/100 = 50 meters in 1 centimeter.

We find the length of the stream.

To do this, we multiply the scale of the plan by a segment.

We get:

50 * 10 = 500 meters.

Answer:

The stream is 500 meters long.
