If the scale on a map is 1/4 in. = 50 miles, how many miles do 3 3/8 inches represent?
Korvikt [17]
Hey there Fish Girl!

So, if \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1/4 \end{array}\right] equals 50 miles, then we would do this multiplied by . . . . 

So, if we would want to go to 3 whole, we would then have to go to the number 3 of course. So then, we do \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4*3=12\end{array}\right] and then from this, we would have to multiply this my 50.

The reason to why we would have to do this is because 1/4 of a mile is 50, so then, sense we are trying to get to the number 3, then, from doing this,we would determine a figure out how many miles this would conclude to be.

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}12*50\end{array}\right]   =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\boxed{\boxed{600}} \ so \ far!\end{array}\right]

So, now, we have covered 3 as a whole, then we would have to see how 3/8 and also 1/4 can relate to each other.

So, in this case,\boxed{\boxed{ \frac{3}{8} \ would \ be \ almost \ \boxed{half} \\ \ because \ it \ is \ almost  \frac{4}{8} }}

So, most likely, it would stay the same as it is, 1/4 because this is almost half to.

SO ALL WE WOULD NEED TO DO NOW IS TO ADD . . . . . 

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\boxed{\boxed{600+50 \ or  \frac{1}{4}=650}} \end{array}\right]\end{array}\right]

YOUR CORRECT AND FINAL ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION WOULD BE. . . . 

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}650 \ miles\end{array}\right]

Hope this helps you fish Girl! :)
