The scale that the map has been drawn at represents actual distance. For instance: a map with a 1: 50 000 (one to fifty thousand) scale means that one centimetre measured on the map represents fifty thousand centimetres on the ground.

It is the map's scale which is printed as part of the map's legend. For instance, a map with a 1:25,000 means that 1 centimetre measured on the map, represents 25,000 centimetres or 250 metres on the ground.

This is known as the scale.
A scale on a map helps you understand the relationship between distances on the map and the actual distances on the ground. It allows you to make accurate measurements and estimates of distances when planning a journey or understanding the size of an area. To use it, simply match the scale on the map with a ruler or measuring tape to determine the actual distance on the ground.
The differences between the these two is that linear scale shows the relation between the map distance and the ground distance. The nonlinear scale do not show the relation between the map distance and the ground distance.

The scale printed on a map will show distances on the map and on the ground. For instance: a map with a scale of 1:50000 (1 in 50,000) means that 1 centimetre measured on the map represents 50,000 centimetres on the ground.

The numerical scale on a map shows how many units of measurement taken from the scale represents the actual distance on the ground. If a and b are 2 miles apart on the ground, the a and b shown on the map should also represent 2 miles apart when measured on the numerical scale.
