All three types of scales can relate the size on a map to the size on the ground. The written scale uses words to describe the ratio between map distance and ground distance, the representative fraction (or ratio scale) uses a fraction or ratio to represent the same ratio, and the graphic (or bar) scale visually represents the ratio using a bar or line that is divided into equal units of distance.
