Map uses scale of 3cm/10km.

If your distance is 12 cm,

then 12cm/(3cm/10km) gives you 40 km.

If the distance of map is 50cm and the scale of the map is 250,000given.what is the distance of the ground?

In this case you have a map with a scale of 1:250000, meaning 1 map unit represents 250000 units on the actual ground. Since the distance on the map is 50 cm(centimeters) we calculate the distance as follows Distance on the ground = distance on the map * the scale 50 cm * 250000 giving us 12 500 000. Therefore, the distance on the ground is 12 500 000 centimeters.


What part of the map is used to find the distance between two points?

How could you estimate the volume of a cereal box in cubic centimeters?

Since it's rectangular, you simply need to multiply the length, width, and height. This will give you the volume. I guess you know what a centimeter looks like, and what 10 centimeters look like. Personally, I would probably use my hand, and check how many times the distance between my thumb and index fits on the box, since it's about 15 centimeters. Either that, or the width of my thumb, which is about 2 centimeters. But with the thumb you're going to be spending a while, so you might as well take the 1 minute and go look through your stuff to find your measuring tape. I think that approximations are very easy to do though, so you don't even need that. Just say that the box has about 50 centimeters in height, 30 centimeters in length, and 10 centimeters in width. So that gives you 15000 centimeters cube, which sounds very close to the actual volume.


Is 4 centimeters equal to 2 inches?

That is a good approximation. The actual answer is 3.937 inches. One centimeter is equal to .3937007878 inches, usually rounded to .394. To convert centimeters into inches, multiple the centimeters by .393700787.
