Frank is drawing a treasure map using a scale of 1 cm to 10 m. he wants to show that the treasure is buried 20 meters from a tree. how many centimeters should he show for this distance on the map?

2cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the initial scale (ratio) of 1 cm to 10m:

You can set up a proportion to solve for the amount of centimeters needed for 20 meters:

, where 'x' is the number of centimeters

Multiplying both the numerator and denominator by '2' in the initial ratio gives you a measure of 2 cm.

.there can be infinite values of m and n that can satisfy the above equation. for each value of m of m or n. there maybe infinite sets of solution for the above
