Question

Could you please help me!?

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 1 inch equals 5 feet. So, every inch is on the map is an extra 5 feet in real space. So if you think about it, all this is is a simple multiplication problem.

Here is the math:

8.5 * 5 = 42.5

Think about it, for every inch there is on the map there is an extra 5 feet in real space. There is 8 inches, so we need 5 extra feet for each of those 8 inches. So what we get for 1 inch is 5 feet, for 2 inches 10 feet, 3 inches 15 feet, etc etc until we reach 8 inches. For the 0.5 inches alone that would equal 2.5 feet in real life since 1 inch is 5 feet.
