I just completed my Lesson 1 Achievement Exam, for Destination Geography and was graded incorrectly.
On question 6, it asks a cartographer who wants to show that 1 inch equals 25 miles as a “representative Fraction” would use which of the following notations?
- 1=25
- 1:25
- 1 inch represents 25 miles
- 1/25
I chose B to be the correct answer, which is correct as stated on page 5 of my lesson ( Three types of scales are used: graphic or bar (a line that looks like a ruler), verbal or word (one inch represents 10 miles/16km) and representative fraction (1:500) )
According to the test results is said that D was the correct answer (1/25).
If I could get some help with fixing this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
