Contour interval
the contour interval is the difference in elevation between contour lines that are next to each other
you just have to do 50*12 and that equals 600!
The definition of a contour interval is the difference in elevation between two consecutive lines.

Contour interval
Contour interval
the difference in elevation represented by each contour line on a topographic map
contour lines
The difference in elevation between two side-by-side contour lines on a topographic map is called the contour interval. It represents the vertical distance between each contour line and helps depict the steepness of the terrain.
topographic elevation
the elevation difference between two adjacent contour lines.
Contour lines show elevation.
A contour is a line that joins points of equal elevation.
Contour lines show elevation.
Contour lines show elevation differences on topographic maps. On other maps, a coloured grid can show changes in elevation (these are called digital elevation models or DEMs).
Contour lines represent connecting points of equal elevation on a topographic map.
