Question

Find the distance between Brisbane and
Greenwood if they are 6 in apart on a map
with a scale of 3 in : 15 mi.

Answer 1

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So since we know the scale of the map (3 in : 15 mi) we will just have to find out how much 3 inches fits into 6 inches and then multiply the result by 15 miles. So we do the following steps.......

$(\frac{6}{3} )15 = (2)(15) = 30$
