scale is 1:100000,that is 1 cm =100000 cm or 1000 m = 1 km.
1 cm x 1 cm = 1 cm^2
1 cm^2 = 1 km^2
30 cm^2 = 30 km^2
3km x 2km = 6.0 km^2
3*100000 cm x 2*100000 cm
3 x 2 = 6 cm^2,using the same scale as above.
1 cm x 1 cm = 1 cm^2
1 cm^2 = 1 km^2
30 cm^2 = 30 km^2
3km x 2km = 6.0 km^2
3*100000 cm x 2*100000 cm
3 x 2 = 6 cm^2,using the same scale as above.

1 : 100,000
1 km = 1000 m = 100,000 cm
1cm = 1 km
1 cm^2 = 1 km^2
30 cm^2 = 30 km^2 ANSWER
ii) 6km ^2 = 6 cm^2 ANSWER
1 km = 1000 m = 100,000 cm
1cm = 1 km
1 cm^2 = 1 km^2
30 cm^2 = 30 km^2 ANSWER
ii) 6km ^2 = 6 cm^2 ANSWER
-
1) 3000000km^2
2)6cm^2
2)6cm^2
