Giovanni went to Los Angeles, California for the summer to visit his cousins. He used a map of bus routes to get from the airport to his cousin’s house. The distance from the airport to his cousin’s house is 56 km. On his map, the distance was 4 cm. What is the scale factor as a fraction (like 1/20)?

(Recall: 1 km=100,000 cm, and scale factor is in the order of scale/actual).
