First we need to find the measurement for 1 centimetre. To do this, we need to divide the given amount of miles (25) by the given number of centimetres (2).
25 / 2 = 12.5
1 cm = 12.5 miles
Now we need to find the distance of the next town.
If the next town is 5 cm, and 1 cm is 12.5 miles, we need to multiply 12.5 by 5.
12.5 * 5 = 62.5
<h3>So the next town is 62.5 miles away!</h3>
If you are asked to round this to the nearest whole number, it would be 63 miles.
You should first find out what lines are what, Like for example, If you had 5 - 10 - 15 as the Y Lines and the bar was between 5 and 10 then your best bet would be to estimate what the middle of 5 and 10 is which would be 7 or 8.
