The equation of a line is defined by: y=mx+b
Step 1: Find the slope (rise over run) so, the rise is 15.7 and the run is 6. 15.7/6=2.62
y=2.62x+b
Step 2: Find the b value (y intercept) - this is where the line goes through the y axis. In this case, it's 15.7
Step 3: add the slope and the b value together - y=2.62x+15.7
Set up a proportion: (1/4)/6 = 32/x
Cross multiplying, we have (1/4)x = 192
x = (4)(192) = 768 miles
