Answer:
1,000 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
set up the equation as
100x = d
where x equals the number of half inches between two points on the map
and d equals the distance between those points in real life
5 inches = 10 half inches so, plugged in the equation looks like
100(10) = d
simplify it to
1000 = d
and bam, the real distance is 1,000 miles
