General store

• A. $1.25$
• B. $2.5$
• C. $2$
• D. $1.1$

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$1.1$

Explanation of the correct option.

Compute the required distance.

Given: The scale used in the map is $1\mathrm{cm}:0.5\mathrm{Km}$

From the map, the distance between school and the book shop is $2.2\mathrm{cm}$.

Therefore, actual distance between school and the book shop$=2.2\times 0.5$

actual distance between school and the book shop$=1.1\mathrm{Km}$

Hence, option $\mathrm{D}$ is the correct answer.
