Given
Scale is 2 cm to 100 km i.e. 2 cm of the map is equivalent to 100 k in the true sense
or 1 cm is equivalent to 50 km
If the distance between the two towns is 2.5 cm
so, in their true distance, it is
[tex]\Rightarrow 2.5\ cm=2.5\times 50\\\Rightarrow 125\ km[/tex]
The distance between two towns is 125 km
