Question

I needs help ........ .

Answer 1

First lets add the 2 distances on the map:

3 3/4 + 5 1/4 = 9 inches  ( 3/4 + 1/4 = 1, 3+5 = 8, 8+1 = 9 )

1/2 inch on the map = 4 miles
 
there are 2  1/2 inches to 1 inch so 4 miles x 2 = 8 miles to 1 inch

so now multiply 9 inches x 8 miles = 72 total miles
