Answer:

the width of the lake on the scale drawing is 12.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale drawing of a lake

             1 cm = 80 m

the actual size of the given lake is 1000 m.

width of the lake on the scale drawing will be equal to

               1 cm =  80 m

                1 m = [tex]\dfrac{1}{80}\ cm[/tex]

         1000 m =[tex]\dfrac{1}{80}\times 1000\ cm[/tex]

                       = 12.5 cm

hence, the width of the lake on the scale drawing is 12.5 cm
