Dale bought a map of his city.it uses a scale of 1 inch = 8miles. dales house and school are 1 1/2 inches apart on the map. how far apart would his house
and school be on the map if the scale were 1 inch = 6 miles
The answer is C 2 inches. If 1 inch is 8 miles and it’s 1 1/2 inches apart originally, it is 12 miles (8+4) in actual distance. So on a scale where 1 inch equals 6 miles it would take 2 inches to represent the 12 miles.
