Answer:
5000 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
3 cm represents on a map of a town=150 m
Distance between two points=1 km
We have to find the distance between two points on the map.
3 cm represents on a map of a town=150 m
1 cm represents on a map of a town=150/3 m
1 km=1000 m
1 m=100 cm
[tex]1km=1000\times 100=100000 cm[/tex]
100000 cm represents on a map of a town
=[tex]\frac{150}{3}\times 100000[/tex] m
100000 cm represents on a map of a town=5000000 m
100000 cm represents on a map of a town
=[tex]\frac{5000000}{1000} km[/tex]
100000 cm represents on a map of a town=5000 km
Hence, two points are separated by 5000 km on the map.
