Respuesta :

From the information given,

1 cm on map = 30km actual distance

6.5 cm on map = x km actual distance

Thus, the proportion is

30 kilometers/1 centimeter = x kilometers/6.5 centimeters

By cross multiplying,

x * 1 = 6.5 * 30

x = 195

Two cities are approximately 6.5 centimeters apart on the map, then the actual distance is 195 kilometers
