Scale 1. If a scale is stated as 1:250,000 then expressed in words this scale is one centimetre represents two hundred and fifty thousand centimetres (or 2.5 kilometres since there are 100,000 cm. In one kilometre); and if a scale is expressed as 1:63,360, then in words this is expressed as one inch represents sixty-two thousand five hundred inches (or one mile, since there are that many inches in a mile). Give two possible verbal equivalents to 1:625,000 (one in metric using centimetres and meters and one in the English [imperial] system using inches and miles [to make mapping easier --- internationally-it is assumed that a mile is 62,500 inches even if in reality it is 63360....use 62,500 inches in a mile]).
