Question

10. If ½ inch represents 10 miles
on a map, then how many
inches will represent 240 miles?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

10 x 12 = 240

0.5 x 240 = 120

0.10 x 120 = 12

you do 10 x 12 to fid the total miles, you can also find it by doing 240 x 0.10.

then you do 240 x 1/2 because it is 1/2 inch per mile.

then you divide the answer to that by 10 because there are 10 inches per mile.
