Let's look at the ratio. X will be the distance between the cities on the map that we're trying to find. 1 in:50 mi X in:350 mi What you do to one side, you have to do to the other. With the actual distance, we hav to see what the scale was multiplied by. 350÷50= 7 It was multiplied by 7. Let's multiply the other side of the ratio by 7. 1×7= X= 7 So, the distance between the cities on the map is 7 inches.
