Amap of a park has a scale of 1 inch to 1000 feet. another map of the same park has a scale of 1 inch to 500 feet. which map is lager? explain or show your reasoning

Based on the scale of both maps, the second map is larger

The map is a scale drawing of the park

A scale drawing is a smaller image of another image. The smaller image is reduced by a constant proportion of the original image

Assume that the length of the park is 10,000 feet:

the scale of the length on the first map would be 10,000 / 1000 = 10 inches

the scale of the length on the second map would be 10,000 /  500 = 20 inches

It can be seen that the second map has a larger length. Thus, it would be larger

Second map

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a map of a park has  a scale of 1 inch to 1000 feet.

Another map of the same park has  a scale of 1 inch to 500 feet.

We have to find which map is larger.

Suppose we have length =3000 feet

Width=2000  feet

In scale I

Length =

Width=

Area=

In second scale

Length =

Width=

Area= square in

Hence,second map has a  scale  of 1 inch to 500 feet  larger than the map has a scale of 1 inch to 1000 feet.
