So 4.25 in. will be = 12×4.25 miles

                              = 51 miles

Therefore, actual distance from New Wilmington to Sharon via Mercer is 51 miles.

Now we have to calculate the actual distance between New Wilmington to Sharon through Volant.

Distance between New Wilmington to Volant = 1 in.

and distance between Volant to Sharon = 2.75 in.

Distance between New Wilmington to Sharon via Sharon = 2.75 + 1 = 3.75 in.
