Question

A map has a scale of 1 inch = 3 miles. Which of the following scales is equivalent?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

77 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 inch = 3 miles in map

We are also given the actual distance between City A and City B = 231 miles.

In order to get the distance in inches = Distance between City A and City B in miles/ 3

We are dividing the distance by 3 to get the distance in inches.

So,

Distance on map = 231/3

= 77 inches

Answer 2

12 inch=36 miles because if you multiply 11 x 3 you get 36 miles.
