Arrange the following scales in ascending order: 1:50,000, 1:200,000, 1:200, 1:300,000

A.

1:200,1:50,000,1:200,000, 1:300,000

B.

1:300,000,1:200,000,1:50,000,1:200

C.

1:50,000, 1:200,000,1:300,000, 1:200

D.

1:300,000, 1:200, 1:50,000, 1:200,000

Correct answer is B

The larger the denominator of a scale, the smaller the scale and the smaller the denominator of a scale, the larger the scale. Hence, the ascending order is 1:300,000< 1:200,000< 1:50,000< 1:200
