Answer:

The second map is larger in size

Step-by-step explanation:

Map 1 = scale of 1 inch to 100

Map 2= scale of 1 inch to 500

Lets assume, the parks have a length of 3000 ft and a width of  2000ft.

Map 1

Length = 3000/1000 = 3ft

Width = 2000/1000 = 2 ft

Map 2

Length: 3000/500 = 6 ft

Wdght: 2000/500 = 4ft

In both length and width, second map is larger in size.
