Answer: 740 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that \frac{3}{8}inches on the map is actually 60 miles and the distance between these two cities is 4\ \frac{5}{8}inches.

You can express this distance as a decimal number:

(4+0.625)inches=4.625inches

Therefore, let be "d" the distance in miles between these two cities.

Then, you get:

d=\frac{(4.625inches)(60miles)}{(\frac{3}{8}inches)}\\\\d=740miles
