when comparing two maps, what should you first look at?
the legends of the maps
the scale of the maps
the titles of the maps
the compass rose

Explanation:

When comparing two maps, the first thing to check is the scale. The scale tells you the relationship between the distance on the map and the actual distance on the ground. If the scales are different, direct comparisons of features (like distances, sizes of areas) would be inaccurate. Legends explain symbols, titles give context, and compass rose gives direction, but scale is fundamental for meaningful comparison first. So the correct answer should be "The scale of the maps".

Answer:

The scale of the maps
