Here are the solutions to your geography assignment:

1. Change the following statements scale into RF scale.

a) 1 cm to 12 km

Step 1: Convert kilometers to centimeters.

12 km=12×100,000 cm=1,200,000 cm12 \text{ km} = 12 \times 100,000 \text{ cm} = 1,200,000 \text{ cm}

Step 2: Express as a ratio.

RF scale=1:1,200,000\text{RF scale} = 1:1,200,000

b) 3 cm to 9 km

Step 1: Simplify the map distance to 1 cm.

1 cm represents 9 km3=3 km1 \text{ cm} \text{ represents } \frac{9 \text{ km}}{3} = 3 \text{ km}

Step 2: Convert kilometers to centimeters.

3 km=3×100,000 cm=300,000 cm3 \text{ km} = 3 \times 100,000 \text{ cm} = 300,000 \text{ cm}

Step 3: Express as a ratio.

RF scale=1:300,000\text{RF scale} = 1:300,000

2. Change the following RF scale into statement scale.

a) 1:2,400,000

Step 1: Interpret the RF scale.

1 cm represents 2,400,000 cm1 \text{ cm} \text{ represents } 2,400,000 \text{ cm}

Step 2: Convert centimeters to kilometers.

2,400,000 cm=2,400,000100,000 km=24 km2,400,000 \text{ cm} = \frac{2,400,000}{100,000} \text{ km} = 24 \text{ km}

Step 3: Write the statement scale.

Statement scale=1 cm to 24 km\text{Statement scale} = \text{1 cm to 24 km}

b) 1:1,900,000

Step 1: Interpret the RF scale.

1 cm represents 1,900,000 cm1 \text{ cm} \text{ represents } 1,900,000 \text{ cm}

Step 2: Convert centimeters to kilometers.

1,900,000 cm=1,900,000100,000 km=19 km1,900,000 \text{ cm} = \frac{1,900,000}{100,000} \text{ km} = 19 \text{ km}

Step 3: Write the statement scale.

Statement scale=1 cm to 19 km\text{Statement scale} = \text{1 cm to 19 km}

3. Assume the ground distance between two points is 324 km and its map distance will be 3 km what will be scale?
Assumption: The map distance is 3 cm, not 3 km, as map distances are typically in centimeters.

Step 1: State the given distances.

Map distance=3 cm\text{Map distance} = 3 \text{ cm} Ground distance=324 km\text{Ground distance} = 324 \text{ km}

Step 2: Convert ground distance to centimeters.

324 km=324×100,000 cm=32,400,000 cm324 \text{ km} = 324 \times 100,000 \text{ cm} = 32,400,000 \text{ cm}

Step 3: Calculate the RF scale.

RF scale=Map distanceGround distance=3 cm32,400,000 cm=110,800,000\text{RF scale} = \frac{\text{Map distance}}{\text{Ground distance}} = \frac{3 \text{ cm}}{32,400,000 \text{ cm}} = \frac{1}{10,800,000}
