Answer» ●Step-1 Calculation for statement scale: According to the question, R.F. = Map distance (NUMERATOR); Ground distance (Dinominator) Now, ASSUMING the Numerator in INCH, so both are considered as "Inch" unit an according to R.F. 1 inch is Numerator and 60,000 miles is Dinominator and 60,000 inch has to be converted into "mile". 1 inch in the map distance REPRESENTED by =60,000 inch on the real ground. 1 inch in the map distance represented by =60,000/63360 (1mile = 63360 inch = 0.95 mile So, The statement scale 1 inch t 0.95 mile. ●Step-2 Calculations for total length of the scale: SUPPOSE, we take 5 mile total scale, so the length of the scale will be, 0.95 mile on the ground distance represented by= 1 inch in the map. 1 mile on the ground distance represented by=1/0.95 in the map. 5 mile on the ground distance represented by= 5x100/0.95 in the map. = 5.3 inch ●Step-3 Numbers of primary division: VALUE of total length of the scale / Value of one primary division = 5 mile/ 1 mile = 5 ●Step-4 Numbers of secondary division: Value of one primary division/Value of Secondary division = 1 mile / 1/2 mile = 2 |
