the scale is a series of marks laid down at determined distances for the purpose of measurement. One inch on a map can equal one mile, or ten miles or 100 miles
or more on the surface of the land. The map legend will confirm the detail
A map with a scale of 1:50 000 (one to fifty thousands) means that 1 centimetre on the map represents 50,000 centimetres on the land. This information is given on a scale on the map, allowing measurements of distance to be worked out.
A motorist may use a map with a scale of 4 miles to the inch, showing roads and other information a motorist may find useful.
A walker may use a 1:25 000 map that shows a lot of detail such as footpaths and even field boundary's.
a sign that says, "north, east, south, west"
A map scale is the ratio of the measure of length and the length that it represents. in the map.
3 cm to 3000
The SCALE of the map indicates the relationship between distances measured on a map and the actual distances.
Here is a little trick to know how to tell the difference between a large scale map, and a small scale map. A large scale map is a map where your house would look large on it. For example, a map of your neighborhood, or a map of you area. (You can see you house on this map) A small scale map is a map where your house would look small on it (or you can't see it at all), like a map of the world, or a map of Europe. So large scale = large house small scale = small house.
you use a map scale by measuring by inches
It is the scale.
Any map not drawn to scale must/will indicate that is it not drawn to scale and will also be marked 'for information only'. For such map projections, the concept of Point Scale is introduced which will strive to keep the scale within narrow bounds and will clearly indicate as such on the map itself

The map needs a scale so that distances on the map can be worked out.

A large scale map is a map with much more detail and focus in a particular area. For example, a map of a neighborhood or street compared to a small scale map, a map of Europe.

This is known as the scale.

T The map is drawn to scale.
a scale is the graph on a map that compares how big it is on the map compared to the real world. :) your welcome
That is the scale of that map.
