If one inch on a map represents 200 miles and it is one half an inch from Milwaukee Wisconsin to Chicago Illinois how far would this be?

Answer 1

1 inch = 200 miles

0.5 inch = 100 miles

Since the inch is divided in half, the number of miles is divided in half too. Half of 200 is 100.

Answer 2

The distance from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Chicago, Illinois would be 100 miles, since one inch on the map represents 200 miles and the distance is half an inch.
