If 500 miles is represented by 7.5 inches:
Divide 500 by 7.5
500/7.5 = 66.666
Multiply this by 3.3
66.666*3.3 = 220

The answer is 220 miles

Answer:

220 Miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual distance between San Francisco and San Diego = 500 miles

On a map this distance is shown in = 7.5 inches

Map shows 1 inches = 500 ÷ 7.5 = 66.666 miles

Now map shows the distance between Fresno and Los Angeles = 3.3 inches

The actual distance = 3.3 × 66.666 = 219.99 ≈ 220 miles

The actual distance from Fresno to Los Angeles is 220 miles.
