Answer:

  64 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of map distance to actual distance is given by the scale. So, we can write the proportion ...

  distance to park / distance on map = (8 km)/(2 cm)

  distance to park = (distance on map)×(8 km)/(2 cm)

  = (16 cm)×(8 km)/(2 cm)

  = 64 km

The distance on the map represents a distance of 64 km to the park.
