No, it almost always does not. Maps have different scales. Even inside the USA, on most maps one inch is not 300 miles. Outside the US, everyone uses a better measuring system that has neither inch nor mile.

If you look all around the edge of a map, you usually see a box in the corner that tells you what all the little marks on the map mean (road, river, border, peak). You can also see a line like a ruler saying 100 --- 200 --- 300 miles. That's called the scale of the map. A map of North America has a very different scale from a map of Berlin.

If you were designing a map of your city would you let 1 inch equal 1 mile 100 miles or 500 miles?

When designing a map of a city, it is important to consider the scale to accurately represent the features of the city. If you let 1 inch equal 1 mile, the map would be too large for a city as it would require a lot of space. On the other hand, if you let 1 inch equal 100 miles, the map would be too small and lack detail. Therefore, a scale of 1 inch equaling 500 miles would be more appropriate for a city map as it strikes a balance between detail and size.
