The paper of an old map drawn to a scale of 100 m to 1 cm has shrunk so that a line originally 10 cm has now become 9.4 cm. There was also a note on the plan that the survey done with Gunter’s Chain was 10 cm too short. If the area measured now is 65 sq- cm. Find the correct area on the ground in sq- cm and sq- km.? If any data is missing you can assume it yourself
