Answer:
23.1m
Step-by-step explanation:
we define x to be the actual distance, y to be the distance on map (y=15.4cm)
if the map scale is 3:750, then by definition of scaling, x and y must satisfy:
[tex] \frac{y}{x} = \frac{3}{750} = \frac{1}{150} [/tex]
we isolate x:
[tex]x = 150 \times y = 150 \times 15.4 = 2310cm = 23.1m[/tex]
