Answer:
"The RF is 1 : 50,000 as it could be anything metres, yards, inches, etc.
RF = 1/500 and will be plotted on large-scale map
The distance between the points on the surface is 500 m
500 * 50,000 = 2,50,00,000 m on the ground
1 m = 100 cm
500 m = 50,000 cm
The distance that is marked on the map is done in cm.
F = Ground distance / Map distance
RF = 50,000 / 25000000
RF = 1 / 500
