A map of sweden shows a scale of 5 cm = 16 km. if the distance between knivsta and stockholm is 17.2 cm on the map how many km is it?

Answer :

Answer:

55.04 km

Step-by-step explanation:

17.2 cm / 5 cm = 3.44

16 km x 3.44 = 55.04 km

You could also solve in this fashion:

[tex]\frac{5}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{17.2}{x}[/tex]

16 x 17.2 = 5x

Multiply 16 x 17.2 = 275.20

Divide the 275.20 by 5 = 55.04
