17 The accurate scale drawing shows the position of a college \(C\) and a train station \(S\)

Scale drawing: point C with a North line, and point S below and to the right of C with a North line; C and S are joined by a straight line

Scale: 1 cm represents 500 m

(a) Find the bearing of \(S\) from \(C\) (1)

For Charles,
1 step = 0.44 m

(b) Work out the number of steps Charles walks as he goes in a straight line from the college to the train station.
Give your answer correct to the nearest whole number of steps. (4)
