Answer:

200 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Ocala is $75$ miles from Tampa.on a map,they are $3$ inches apart.Talpaheasses is $8$ inches from Tampa on the same map.

To Find: how far is Tallahassee from Tampa.

Solution:

Actual distance between Ocala and Tampa $=75$ $\text{miles}$

Distance on map between Ocala and Tampa $=3$ $\text{inches}$  

$3\text{inches on map}=75\text{miles in actual}$

$\text{actual distance for 1 inch distanceon map}=\frac{75}{3}$

                                                                              $=25\text{miles}$

Distance between Talpaheasses and Tampa on map is $=8\text{inches}$

Actual distance between Talpaheasses and Tampa $=\text{distance on map in inches}\times\text{actual distance for 1 inch on map}$

                                                          $8\times25$

                                                          $200$ $\text{miles}$

Hence Tallahassee is $200$ $\text{miles}$ far from Tampa.
