Logan made a treasure hunt map. The treasure is marked as being 25 cm away from his location on the map. If each 1 cm on the scale drawing equals 5 meters, how far is he from the treasure?

Answer (3)

It is 125m.
Why? Because if 1cm is 5m, then 25cm is equal to 125m.
5x25=125

Logan is 125 meters away from the treasure, based on the map scale where 1 cm equals 5 meters. By multiplying the distance on the map (25 cm) by the scale factor (5 m), we find the actual distance. Thus, 25 cm on the map translates to 125 meters in reality.
