Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor is 56÷4 that comes out to be 14. So for every 14km un the real world 1 cm is represented on the map
14 , 56 km = 56 × 100000 = 5600000 cm
5600000 ÷ 4 = 1400000
4 ÷ 4 = 1
5600000:4 ratio simplified is 1400000:1 so if you take all the zeros off , it will be exact 14 .
