Answer:

Given:

1 cm  = 1200000 cm

using conversion : 1 km = 100000 cm

[tex]1 cm = 12 \times 100000 cm[/tex]

1 cm = 12 km

or we can write this as:

12 km  = 1 cm  

306 km = [tex]\frac{1 \times 306}{12} = \frac{306}{12} = 25.5[/tex] cm (by unitary method)

Therefore, the distance between Ny and Boston on map(in cm) is, 25.5 cm
