A political map
A scale on a map states that every ¼ of an inch represents 20 miles. If two cities are 3 ½ inches apart, how many miles are actually between the two cities?
To find the distance between the two cities on the map, you can use the scale of 1 inch representing 50 miles. Since the cities are 450 miles apart, you divide 450 by 50, which equals 9. Therefore, the cities are 9 inches apart on the map.
To find the distance between the cities on the map, use the given scale of 1 inch representing 50 miles. Since the two cities are 450 miles apart, divide 450 by 50: ( 450 \div 50 = 9 ) inches. Therefore, the cities would be 9 inches apart on the map.
