    Given:

    1850 km

    3.7 cm

    1 km = 100,000 cm

    1850 km * 100,000cm/1km = 1850 * 100,000 cm = 185,000,000 cm

    scale statement: 3.7cm on the map represents 1850 km of actual distance between Vancouver and Winnipeg.

    Scale factor used 3.7 cm : 185,000,000 cm or 1 : 50,000,000

    185,000,000 cm : 3.7 cm = 50,000,000
