Answer:
<u>Cities A and B are 1,125 miles apart</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Distance between A and B in the map = 5 inches
Distance between C and D in the map = 4 inches
Real distance between C and D = 900 miles
2. How many miles apart are cities A and B?
We will solve the question, using Direct Rule of Three, as follows:
Distance in the map Real distance
A - B 5 inches x
C - D 4 inches 900 miles
***************************************************
4x = 900 * 5
4x = 4,500
x = 4,500/4
x = 1,125 miles
<u>Cities A and B are 1,125 miles apart</u>
