Answer:
<em>The scale factor is 1:125</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Scaling</u>
Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which consists of multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling when representing geographic locations on a map.
On a scale drawing, a distance of 5 meters = 500 cm is represented by 4 centimeters. The scale factor is usually represented as a ratio of the smallest to the biggest magnitude:

The scale factor is 1:125
DE + EF = DF
x - 2 + 6x + 4 = 8x - 2
7x + 2 = 8x - 2
2 + 2 = 8x - 7x
4 = x <===
48 miles/4hrs = 12 mph
Increased Speed 12 mph + 8mph = 20 mph
Distance left 108 miles - 48 miles = 60 miles
Time left 60 miles/20 mph = 3 hours
