This math topic focuses on understanding and applying map scales in metric units to find actual distances based on measurements on maps. Specific skills practiced include converting measurements at different scales (such as 1:50, 1:300, 1:800, 1:4,000, and 1:6,000) to real distances in either centimeters or millimeters. Students are expected to calculate the corresponding real-life measurements when provided with a scale and a map measurement, all dealing with values less than 1000 in the same unit of measurement. This category spans introductory concepts in measurement conversion and map scale understanding using the metric system.
