Answer:

0.68 inches (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the length on the map that represents 1 mile of the subway.

677 miles ----- 4.1 inches

1 mile ----- 4.1 ÷ 677= 0.0060561 inches (5 s.f.)

Multiply both sides by 113:

113 miles ----- 113(0.0060561)= 0.68 inches (nearest hundredth)

Thus, the length of the subway on the map is 0.68 inches.
