What part of a map tells the relationship of distance on a map to a real distance on earth?
scale
Reading and using statement of scale graphic scale and scale shown by representative fraction method?
To convert map measurements to actual distance, measure the scale distance on the map and multiply by the denominator of the scale (the larger number in the ratio). e.g. two cm on a 1:25000 map equals 2x25000 = 50,000 cm or 500 meters.
What type of map has a ratio of 1 inch map distance equals 600000 inches ground distance and smaller?
small scale
What a map with a scale of 124000 means?
A scale of 124000 (often written as 1:124 000) means that 1 centimetre on the map represents 124,000 centimetres on the ground.
The type of scale 124000 is an example of?
The scale 1:24000 is a numerical factor scale, equivalent to a large scale map.
What does A map with a scale of 124000 means that?
it means that any measurement you make on the map is 25,000 times bigger in the real world. ie. 1 metre on the map would be 25,000 metres (25 kms) on the ground
Which map would be bigger in size one map to scale of 1cm equals 100km or another map drawn to scale 1cm equals 50km?
if 2cm is 50km 1cm is 25km
Which has the smaller scale a map on which 1inch equals 100miles or a map on which 1 inch equals 200 miles?
The 1 inch to 200 miles is the smaller scale.
Why would a map scale show 1 m equals 400 m?
because that's the scale the map is drawn at...
What is a verbal scale?

This is an example of a scale drawing.
Which has a smaller scale a map on which 1 inch equals 100 miles or a map that 1 inch equals 200 miles?
The map where 1 inch equals 100 miles
What kind of information does a map scale show?
what a distance on the map equals in the real world
Why is it important for a map to show scale?
So you know what distance equals a mile which varies map to map.
Which has a smaller scale a map on which 1 inch equals 100 miles or map on which 1 inch equals 200 miles?
The smaller scale map is the 1 inch to 200 miles. The smaller the ratio (1:100, 1:200 etc) the larger the scale, and the more detail is in the map.
