Find the distance between A and B, if on the map they are 4 cm apart.
Distance between A and B on the map = 4 cm
Scale shows that 1 cm = 20 km
∴ 4 cm = 4 × 20
= 80 km
∴ The actual distance between A and B = 20 km
The distance between two places P and Q is 42 km. If Mr A starts from P with a uniform speed of 4 kmph towards Q and Mr B starts from Q towards P with some uniform speed, they meet each other after 6 hours. Find the speed of Mr B.
