Solution

Distance between the city A and city B in Map
= 6 cm
Actual distance between these cities = 60 Km
Map scale :
6 cm = 60 km
6 cm $\div$ 6 = 60 Km $\div$ 6
1 cm = 10 km

Actual distance between the city A and city C in Map
Map scale :
1 cm = 10 km
1 cm $\times$ 3 = 10 km $\times$ 3
= 30 Km
So the actual distance between city A and city c will be 30 km.
