Question

Barry’s pet turtle, Turtlelini, escaped from his backyard. Barry found Turtlelini by the creek and wanted to determine how far Turtlelini had walked. On the map, Barry’s house is 0.6 inch from the creek. If the scale on the map shows that 1.5 inches are equivalent to 0.8 mile, how far did Turtlelini walk, to the nearest tenth of a mile?

Answer 1

Answer:

On the map:

0.8 mile / 1.5 inches

=  0.533 mile / 1 inch

Total distance on the map:

0.6 inches

distance travelled in miles:

0.6 * 0.533 = 0.32 miles
