Absolute magnitude is based on the distance at which a star would appear if it were located at a standard distance of 10 parsecs (32.6 light-years) from Earth. This standardized distance allows astronomers to compare the true brightness of stars regardless of their actual distance from Earth.
If the scale is 1 centimeter to 1 kilometer, then the actual distance represented by the scale distance would be 1 kilometer for every 1 centimeter on the map. This means that if you measure a distance of, say, 5 centimeters on the map using this scale, the actual distance in real life would be 5 kilometers.
The straight line distance would be 350 kilometers (3.5 x 100 km). Multiply the measured distance by the scale.
You multiply by the scale factor. For example, if the scale is 1:100,000, you would multiply by 100,000.
Jupiter is 5 times as far away from the Sun as Earth, Saturn is 10 times as far.

Maps are flat and Earth is round

The key.
Sure thing, honey. If the map distance is 6 cm, the actual distance would be 63 km. If the map distance is 8.5 cm, the actual distance would be 89.25 km. Just multiply the map distance by 21 km and divide by 2 cm to get the actual distance. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
The shortest 'theoretical' air distance from Washington DC, USA to Manila, Philippines is 8572 miles. Actual distance would depend on airport location and actual route of the flight.
You multiply by the scale factor. For example, if the scale is 1:100,000, you would multiply by 100,000.
Map scale
Without seeing an actual maze, paths within the maze, and without a definition of whether one is discussing distance "as the crow flies", versus distance within the maze. The only conclusion one can come to is that the distance walked would be greater than or equal to (>=) the distance from the start. I.E. it is likely that the person didn't follow a straight line between the start and current position, and there was also some retracing of steps.
A kilometre is a unit of distance. Without a unit of speed to compare, it is impossible to know how much time it would take to travel that distance.
The straight line distance would be 350 killometers
